COVID 19 ALERT : PLEASE READ

Your health and safety is very important to us. As such, we encourage all marketplace users to practice social distancing when meeting up to exchange purchased items. We are also asking item donors to thoroughly sanitize them prior to meeting up with a purchaser. Where feasible, items should be left outside for “curb-side” pick up. Donors and purchasers should wash their hands after every meet up. By following these simple steps, we can all stay healthy while raising much needed funds for our favorite charities. Thanks for your cooperation and support.

Big News!

We’ve heard the feedback, and we are thrilled to announce that we have now launched the desktop version of the GiveShop marketplace!

Initially users were limited to making transactions exclusively on the GiveShop mobile app. But now anyone can use any device to donate and buy gently used items in benefit of local charities and schools.

Thank you for helping us grow and improve the GiveShop platform. We’re grateful for everyone who is helping us make community giving easier and more accessible to all. If you have any ideas that could help us improve GiveShop, please email us at [email protected].

WHY GIVESHOP

DONORS = WIN

by donating gently used items with sale proceeds helping local and national charities fulfill the goals and challenges that help all of us. Donors also win by re-purposing gently used items away from landfill and earn a charitable receipt in the process.

BUYERS = WIN

by finding great deals on a variety of gently used items and directing their shopping dollars to charities that can pass on their win to so many others. Knowing that the money you spend will go to helping charities flips shopping from a me to we activity.

CHARITIES/SCHOOLS = WIN

by offering supporters of all ages a new way to donate. Canadians that want to clear the clutter at home can turn those gently used items into good deeds that charities and schools perform. Others on a tight budget can offer gently used items a new home and help out their favourite charity or school in the process.
