REmarket FAQs 1: DONATIONS

As we all prepare to identify those household items that can be taken to the
St. Lawrence neighbourhood’s 9th REmarket on January 24 and 25, we thought we would share some information regarding frequently asked questions. In this issue of the newsletter we look at questions regarding DONATIONS.

Did you know that we accept many common items for donation at our REmarket event?

You can donate items in almost any condition, including:

• Clothes, shoes, and accessories (no wet or smelly items)
• Textiles in any condition (but not damp or smelly)
• Household items (e.g., kitchen items, knickknacks, and decorative items)
• Books and magazines (all kinds)
• Art, school, and office supplies
• Prescription eyeglasses (with or without a case)
• Technological items, including phones and computers (data wiped)
• Children’s toys and games
• Mobility aids (e.g., canes, crutches, walkers, wheelchairs, and prosthetics)
• DVDs, CDs, video games, cassettes, and VHS tapes

Items that are usable will be included in our FreeMarket or will be redistributed, refurbished, or upcycled by our charity partners, including the Salvaltion Army.
