Donate to your Community!
Do you know of a corporation or business that is looking to do something good in our community? Are they looking for a way to contribute to a worthwhile cause in a way that also benefits their brand? Are they struggling to find a solution for overstock items that are taking up valuable space in their warehouse?
Don’t worry, Habitat Halton-Mississauga-Dufferin is here to help! Every year, the ReStore (a social enterprise run by Habitat for Humanity and its team of volunteers) receives thousands of donations of products and goods from all types of corporations in our community. These donations are then sold at Habitat’s ReStore location to raise money to build affordable homes for local families in need of a safe place to live.
Donating to Habitat is a win-win situation for our community and local businesses. It’s also an easy way to make a difference in the lives of local families who are struggling to put food on the table and a roof over their heads. Items that are taking up valuable warehouse space, such as products that may have been mis-packaged, damaged, returned, discontinued, are end-of-line, or considered overstock can all can be donated to the ReStore in exchange for a charitable tax receipt.
Donating is quick and easy — all corporations have to do is pick up the phone and call 289-208-5608 or email cdigiovanni@habitathm.ca. Habitat Halton-Mississauga’s Procurement Manager, Charles Digiovanni, will walk them through the process and make donating to the ReStores a breeze. Items with a usable life that we recycle back into the community, include:
- Discontinued product
- Ageing inventory
- Scratched & dented merchandise
- Return to vendor items
Items can also be dropped off at local ReStore locations.
Call Charles Digiovanni at 289-208-5608 or email cdigiovanni@habitathm.ca for more information.
