“Twigs is an invaluable partner in our mission to provide exceptional medical and surgical health care to our community,” said Derek Anderson , executive director at Northern Westchester Hospital. “Formed from various communities in the region, and professional/personal backgrounds, the volunteer team of Twigs is the epitome of our mission. Where else can you find such a committed team of volunteers who are simultaneously serving the community, advancing the hospital’s sophisticated care, while impacting the environmental sustainability to our community?”

Twigs, which was founded in 1945, opened its thrift store in 1964, offering a variety of pre-owned clothing, jewelry, art, books, bric-a-brac, and small furniture. All profits from the thrift store benefit the vital healthcare services provided by Northern Westchester Hospital.

“Our enduring partnership with Northern Westchester Hospital gives all of us at Twigs such joy,” said Deb Coffino, outgoing Twigs President “This most recent donation solidifies our position as the hospital’s most steadfast benefactor. Our all-volunteer thrift store is grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the health and well-being of our community.”
