Frequently asked questions
Although group volunteer support is beneficial for our operations, financial contributions are essential for ensuring we are able to deliver on our mission of eradicating furniture poverty across Canada. Donations contribute to training Leg Up employees—equity deserving people who are facing barriers to employment who work in every aspect of the organization, the capital costs of running our warehouse, and the infrastructure required to serve 3,600 families annually.
You will be at our furniture showroom, workshop and warehouse. Closed-toe shoes must be worn at all times (running shoes are perfect)! You will be volunteering in a warehouse/ workshop which can be a tad dusty/ you might be painting/sanding so please dress accordingly. In the winter assume some layers will help too!
Normal days of caring group volunteer days run Monday through Friday from 9:30am – 12:30pm
We can customize your event to accommodate an afternoon with planning.
10 people are ideal.
With planning, we can host larger groups. Do you have a bigger group? Contact us to talk about the details!
We think so – we have over 200 companies and over 2000 their employees come through Furniture Bank to make an immediate impact on the community.
