Community Donation Drives

Host Your Own Donation Drive and Make a Meaningful Impact

At The Salvation Army Thrift Store, donations are at the heart of everything we do.

By hosting a donation drive, you are directly supporting your community and making a lasting difference in the lives of those in need. As a non-profit organization, the funds raised through our Thrift Stores support vital Salvation Army programs and services across Canada, from food banks to children’s camps.

  • How does hosting a Community Donation Drive make a difference?

    As a non-profit organization, the funds raised through the sale of donated items at our Thrift Stores directly support vital Salvation Army programs and services across Canada, helping those in need in our local communities. These include foodbanks, shelters for people experiencing homelessness, rehabilitation for those struggling with addictions, modern slavery and human trafficking prevention, emergency relief efforts, and more.

    Additionally, through our voucher program, individuals and families in need can shop in our stores free of charge, ensuring they receive essential items at no cost. When you donate, you’re helping to provide funding for life-changing services, supporting people in need, and promoting sustainability by giving pre-loved items a second life.

  • What should you collect during a Community Donation Drive?
