The partnership

Zoom keeps coming back to the Workshop

Every year since 2024, a team from Zoom has spent a day in our Workshop, getting donated furniture and electronics ready for families moving into a home of their own.

Zoom is the company behind the Zoom meeting platform, known since 2024 as Zoom Communications. Through Zoom Cares, its social impact program, Zoom employees volunteer in their local communities. In Toronto, that has meant days in our Workshop.

The first Zoom team came in September 2024. They assembled furniture and painted three large tables. A second team came back in November 2025 to build more furniture, and in November 2026 a third team tested 70 donated electronics and built two dressers and four night tables.

Everything Zoom volunteers finish goes to the families we serve: newcomers and refugees, people leaving homelessness, and women and children starting over after a shelter stay. A social service agency refers each family to us, and our team helps them choose what their household needs from our showroom.

Every donated electronic that passes a test is one a family can plug in and use on their first night in a new home. Thank you to everyone from Zoom who has spent a day with us.
