Give What You Can

Funded by the Calgary Homeless Foundation, the Free Goods Program provides lightly used goods, like furniture, kitchenware, clothing, computers, mobile phones, small appliances, books, and more, to low- and no-income Calgarians who are building a life for themselves and their family. Everyone deserves a home of their own and we are proud to help people in achieving this.

We accept all clean and usable household items, furniture, cookware, clothing, and hygiene items.

If you have computers or technology to donate, please contact our Computers for Low-Income Calgarians (CLIC) at 403-699-8276 to arrange a drop-off.

If you have household and personal items to donate, please mail or deliver them to:

Donation Centre

Calgary, AB T2E 6M7

Open seven days a week
Monday-Friday: 8:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.

Volunteering opportunities are back! We are thrilled to welcome back volunteers at our main building downtown. Please consider signing up to help serve a meal! If you still want to keep volunteering at the Donation Centre, that would also be a gift! As we are still receiving much-needed clothing, furniture, and household donations for our Free Goods Program, we need a lot of hands to help sort donations and manage our inventory.

Breakfast: $1,000
Lunch: $1,250
Dinner: $2,000
Bagged Lunch: $750

Put together packages filled with kindness that will go directly to our city’s most vulnerable people. On your own or with your bubble (also a great opportunity to do with your kids), there are multiple types of Kindness Kits to build!
