About Us

Our Story

Steered Straight Thrift started out as a small, boutique store in front of our offices in January, 2020. With each passing day customers were visiting, buying, and donating items for us to raise money for our purpose. We quickly grew as our patrons learned more about our mission.

In July, 2020 we opened our doors to a bigger location, on West College Street. From there we continued to expand. Our next location was off of Middle Tennessee Blvd. in a supportive community we love to serve. Donations continued to flood in as word of mouth spread about our mission. These donations included furniture, which led us to open Steered Straight TOO Furniture & Thrift off of Dr MLK Jr Blvd in March of 2022.

We employ over 20 people from all different walks of life, each of us with a story of our own that drives us all to work hard at our common goal. We have volunteers come every day to help with our stores and move in the right direction. We work with 3 other charitable missions in this area to continue giving and passing it forward. Steered Straight has been so blessed with an outpouring of donations; we are able to help other charities and bless them. Our goal is to keep the blessings moving throughout Middle Tennessee and serve our neighbors to the best of our abilities. Steered Straight Family

The Steered Straight Mission:

To provide youth with real-life examples of negative consequences that resulted from making poor decisions. We strive to impact the minds of youth to steer their lives in positive ways and encourage them to make positive life-choices. Give kids the ability to develop a sense of understanding about the positive and negative choices in their lives. Reduce the number of youth who end up in the criminal justice system due to making poor decisions.

Our Supporters

Our amazing team of dedicated and selfless supporters has enabled us to become a leading expert in Prevention and Recovery nationwide. It is because of the donations we get all over the country from these amazing people who believe in our cause and want to do everything they can to help in anyway they can that we are able to do the work we do.
