Give Goods
We gratefully accept donations of new or gently used clothing, accessories, and household goods at three locations in Edmonton.
Donations Make a Difference
- 35,000 articles of clothing are given free of charge to people struggling with poverty and homelessness in the inner city each year.
- Thousands of Thrift Shoppe customers depend on the affordable clothing and household goods monthly to support their low-income families.
- All revenue from our Thrift Shoppe directly supports Bissell Centre programs, which are designed to eliminate poverty in Edmonton.
How Donations Are Used
Community Closet
Bissell Centre participants can access our Community Closet for free clothing and footwear. This volunteer-run program provides a dignifying shopping experience to over 5,000 people each year.
Family Closet
Similar to the Community Closet, our Family Closet provides low-income families with free clothing and footwear for adults, children and infants.
Thrift Shoppe
Our Thrift Shoppe, located on 118th Avenue, is a place for people to find affordable clothing and household goods. It is also home to our donation sorting centre.
