We're Proud to Announce...

We’re proud to announce a partnership with Habitat for Humanity Toronto.




Our goal is to raise awareness and support them in their efforts to eliminate poverty housing in our community.

One of the great ways to support Habitat for Humanity is through their ReStores…donate or shop!

Habitat for Humanity Toronto’s ReStores sell new and gently used renovation materials and supplies. Everything sold in the ReStores has been donated which is how they are able to sell everything for at least 50% off retail, or more.

They constantly receive new inventory so every visit to the ReStore you can find an amazing deal or a one-of-a-kind gem.

We are doing our own renovation and were able to find a new designer chandelier for 60% less than retail!

If you are conquering a renovation yourself, find out how you can donate your home’s materials instead of paying for costly disposal fees. Not to mention receive a tax receipt.

Habitat ReStore profits pay for 100% of the administrative costs of operating Habitat for Humanity Toronto. By covering their own costs, they are able to direct every dollar donated to home building.

You can check out the local ReStore at 29 Bermondsey Road or go to www.torontohabitat.ca for more locations.

Did you know?

The Toronto Star just named our city “Canada’s poverty capital.” Thirty percent of families in the GTA live below the poverty line.
