2013-04-03 Auntie Helen's Has Moved
Note from Tony: This is one of my favorite charities. If I have clothes, equipment, books, old porn, whatever, I don't hand it away to other folks - I just drop it off at Auntie Helen's!
After 23 years in the same location serving thousands of clients, we are moving two blocks up 30th Street to better serve our community.
4127 30th St. San Diego, CA 92104

Auntie Helen's is THRILLED to open our new Thrift Store and HIV/AIDS Laundry Service at 4127 30th Street (30th & Polk)!
We have a brand new look, a brand new vibe, yet the same dedication and cheerful, smiling service we've provided to thousands of clients for decades!
Join us for the Ribbon Cutting on Saturday, March 30th at 11am. Ribbon Cutting will be conducted by both Michael Dudley, Auntie Helen's Executive Director and Kurt Wendelborg, Mr. San Diego Leather 2011, current VP of the San Diego Chapter of the Gay Rodeo Association and appointed Cabinet Minister for the 41st Reign of the Imperial Court de San Diego for HRH Empress Candi Samples.
