Ditch the diet!

You can ditch the diet and still make good on your New Year resolution to lose a few extra pounds this year. Our VGH Thrift Store will gladly relieve you of unwanted clothing and a vast array of household items weighing you down. All sale proceeds go to benefitting our patients, clients and residents within the Vancouver Community of Care.

VGH Thrift Store wants your unwanted stuff

The store’s volunteers welcome your previously loved and gently used:

  • adult and children’s clothing, footwear, jewellery and accessories
  • books, including textbooks published within the last five years
  • multimedia, including DVDs, CDs, records and even VHS tapes!
  • housewares, such as kitchenware, small appliances, vintage curios, artwork and flat screen TVs
  • sports gear (hockey equipment and skis excluded)
  • office supplies and equipment, including working computers and printers
  • small furniture items (couches, dining hutches and bed frames excluded)

Donating to the VGH Thrift Store is easy

You can drop off adult and children’s clothing and footwear at the store’s donation bin on the VGH campus:
