The Wear After Shop is a purely non-profit organization operating in the retail industry whose sole purpose is to raise money for The Junior League of Pittsburgh, Inc. It is dedicated to doing everything possible in order to generate a maximum profit to support the Junior League of Pittsburgh's activities and charities. The Wear After Shop achieves these goals by selling high quality clothing at consignment prices to the surrounding area.
The shop is mainly run by volunteers. There are, however,
two full-time paid employees as well as one part-time staff member. They are responsible for the daily operations.
A volunteer committee of Junior League members oversees planning and policy decisions. The shop is open to
the public six days a week. In the near future, we may start to
open our doors on Sunday. Bloomfield has some of the nicest churches in Pittsburgh and several people have shown
interest in after-mass shopping.
"One of Pittsburgh's liveliest business strips, Liberty Avenue in Bloomfield is home to some of the most memorable restaurants and shops in Pittsburgh. Immerse yourself in Pittsburgh's history as a city of immigrants by stopping in at the Bloomfield Bridge Tavern to enjoy real Polish food, or drop by Tessaro's or Alexander's for some Italian flavor. But don't stop there, keep the tradition going with Vietnamese and Chinese flavors. Convenient to the business district downtown or the universities in Oakland, Bloomfield is also a great place to live."
