At The Last Best Store, we're more than just a marketplace—we’re a community hub for Montana artists, makers, and mission-driven organizations. Since opening our doors in Southgate Mall (Missoula, MT) in 2021, we’ve been guided by a simple but powerful vision: to promote local art and manufacturing while supporting the vibrant communities that truly make Montana the Last Best Place.
Our merchandise-based fundraising program is one way we bring that vision to life. Through these special partnerships, we work with local nonprofits and community-based organizations to create and sell high-quality, often handcrafted merchandise. Whether it’s apparel, accessories, or custom-designed products, each collection is made in Montana, made in the USA, and made with purpose. We manage the production, marketing, and sales—donating a portion of proceeds directly to our partners to further their missions and amplify their impact.
By purchasing from these collections, you are not just acquiring a stylish and meaningful item–you are actively supporting these programs and the broader communities they serve. Learn more about each organization on their dedicated collaboration page, and help us to support the vital work they do!
