At Bissell Thrift Shop, every donation does more than just find a new home; it creates impact for both people and the planet.
Who else remembers the three Rs? Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
Here’s what that looks like in action:
🌎 Items donated to our thrift shop are shared with individuals and families accessing programs at Bissell Centre, helping meet immediate needs and support stability.
🌎 Anything not needed right away is reused through our thrift shop, giving it a second life in the community.
🌎 This helps reduce the amount of clothing and household goods that end up in landfills.
🌎 And through our partnership with Quantum Lifecycle, we’ve recycled over 18,300 pounds of old technology in 2025.
Because the reality is that poverty affects every part of a person’s life, without stability, people are often forced to focus on day-to-day survival. Access to the right supports at the right time can change that.
Poverty is solvable. And through Bissell Thrift Shop, you’re part of that solution! Helping create pathways to stability while reducing environmental impact.
This Earth Day, consider how donating or thrifting can support both people and the planet. Join us and be a part of the change. 🌱
