Planned Giving
A planned gift allows you to make a significant impact at Furniture Bank while receiving tax benefits that, in some instances, can reduce the out-of-pocket cost of each gift significantly. These can include gifts of bequests, retirement funds, stocks and securities, gifts-in-kind, charitable remainder trusts, gifts of residual interest, and life insurance. We are dedicated to finding the most efficient, personally advantageous method for each donor. If you are considering a planned gift, we recommend you do so in consultation with your financial planner and/or legal counsel. Please call 416-934-1229 or email

Corporate Giving
Demonstrate community involvement and good corporate citizenship by supporting those struggling as they try to build new lives and homes. By becoming a corporate donor, companies in the GTA can make a significant impact upon the lives of those in need. Supporting Furniture Bank creates an opportunity to involve your employees in a worthy cause. A monetary donation enables Furniture Bank to supply furniture to those in need. Help us help others.
Financial contributions are of significant importance. Your donation also allows us to continue to restore dignity to those less fortunate by reestablishing a home. It can also support capital projects such as the purchase of· trucks to pickup and deliver furniture, or equipment and systems to manage our operation. For larger donations and program or event sponsorship, opportunities may include naming rights at our facilities and logo recognition. Furniture Bank makes every effort to create a beneficial relationship with our corporate donors.
Your company can get involved in several different ways:
1. A financial donation can be made to Furniture Bank
2. Participation in one of our Special Events such as the Chair Affair
3. Volunteer in our warehouse, office, household goods areas
4. Run furniture and/or household goods drive
