Make a Gift In-Kind

Thank you for thinking of us for your donation.

Please note that due to storage limitations we are unable to accept large volume donations of used clothing. At the Red Door we do not have the facilities to wash used items or do large volume sortings.

The needs at the shelters can change so it is best to contact us to ensure that we are able to accept your donation.

If you would like to donate items to the Red Door, please contact Natasha Ricketts at 416-915-5671 ext 234 or via email at inkind@reddoorshelter.ca
