empower youth by shopping

By shopping with us, 100% of the proceeds from every purchase go to our program to coach and guide young adults in our 6-12 month program as well as provide supports for them for at least 2 years after they graduate from More Than Words.

"They taught me how to be professional. They gave me a chance to be a leader with other youth on shift. It wasn’t just a bookstore; it was a home where I felt comfortable."
