@311Toronto @cityoftoronto There are so many to help people in general. Besides donating food, check out the wonderful Toronto Furniture Bank and, as always, @torontolibrary which is about way more than ‘just books’.
The team at the Furniture Bank has worked so hard to furnish so many homes of families and individuals in need this year❤️ Support our staff and volunteers in continuing their work by making a contribution today. matthewhouseottawa.org/donation
@plain_me9 I'm not sure where you live. If near Toronto, the Furniture Bank will charge for pick-up but they give you a charitable donation receipt for the estimated value of the items you're giving. It costs a lot to operate trucks with drivers etc. and charities are not swimming in $$.
At 47, most every piece of furniture in our house is secondhand or over 20 years old from IKEA, except 2 of 3 kids’ beds. Our bed frame & headboard came from a dumpster behind an apartment building in Toronto (but it was Davisville!) 22 years ago. Furniture is still aspirational.
This is such a generational difference - when I was young, furniture was so expensive you would never aspire to buy it, so no expectation your place would look good. Now, shitty furniture is cheap enough that young people want a NICE place, which I get! But it still costs a lot!
