THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT
As a community, our impact improved the lives of so many. Between April 1, 2021 and March 31, 2022:
- We helped a total of 10,330 people (including children and household members) access furniture and other household goods.
- We provided one million+ clothing and essential items during 15,392 visits to our Clothing Room.
- We distributed 565 computers to people and/or families.
- We collaborated with 120 agencies and outreach groups to ensure the whole community was covered.
- We worked together with Calgarians to give their much-needed items a second life and keep these items from the landfill.

ITEMS WE DON'T ACCEPT
We accept almost anything because of how many agencies we work with. If we can't use it, we will recycle it. We may also sell high-value and non-essential items, and all proceeds go back towards our programs.
There are still a few items we cannot accept.
- Car seats
- Cribs
- Large appliances
- Heavily soiled, damaged clothing, and furniture
