2016 Annual Executive Director Report Love INC is now in its 13th year in Brevard and I am celebrating my 11th year as executive director. In 2015, we have significantly expanded our footprint in the community by acquiring Segunda Vida Thrift Store and moving it to a new location with a new name. Village Thrift is now located just north of the Melbourne International Airport on Apollo Blvd. and now has 11,000 square feet of space. That move also created opportunity to relocate the Love INC office and Clearinghouse call center to the new location. This move significantly decreases facility costs while doubling the space available for operations and the call center. Below are important statistics for our 2015 Ministry Impact.
