(Note that I don’t know if they accept this type of item.I called but the person that handles donation isn’t working Friday. But I would suggest you try here with them.) Note that CharityWishList.ca doesn’t accept items itself.) If they don’t, let me know and I will try to find a charity for you. Thanks for asking.
Hi, I have an elliptical machine that is about 7 years old, but hardly used. Do you know of any charities that I can donate it to? I need someone to pick it up as well. I live in Surrey, BC.
Hi Sharon, I have reached out to a charity to see if I can find you some options. CharityWishList.ca doesn’t collect anything itself. I will follow-up again with you as soon as I hear back from them. Thanks, Michelle Beaupre
Hello. I have an elliptical to donate as well. We’re you able to find a charity?
Thank you…
Hi Ken, still working on finding a charity in Vancouver interested in elliptical machines. If you find one please let me know. Thanks.
Hockey equipment to donate. 6 pairs of skates for smaller children plus new adult men’s skates and lots of hockey gear. Please let me know if you have a place to donate to. Thanks
Hi Christine, I have an idea of who might be interested. I will send an email tonight to them and see if they would be interested. Thanks for wanting to donate the skates and hockey stuff. – Michelle Beaupre
Hello, I have a pair of skates to donate too. Could I have this email as well please?
Hi Mykola, I haven’t found a charity in Vancouver, but I did come across a Girls Hockey Team that is looking for donations of skates and hockey equipment. Try this: https://www.vancouvergirlshockey.com/donate-gear-to-tupper-secondarys-girls-hockey-program/
Hi there, I would like to donate my elliptical. I’m moving out of province and don’t want to trash it. Thank you
Hi Michelle, I would suggest calling a Royal Canadian Legion branch near you and asking if they would be interested, or if they know of a veteran that is undergoing rehab and might appreciate the elliptical. Hope this helps. https://legion.ca/contact-us/find-a-branch
I have lightly used hockey equipment for kids that I would like to donate. Where can I do so?
Hi Jasmine, here is a link to a list of Canadian Tire stores where normally equipment can be dropped off. I called one of them to see if they are still accepting and it went to voicemail, so you will want to pick the one closest to you and call first. https://www.nhl.com/senators/community/equipment-for-kids
The Salvation Army also accepts hockey equipment.

Hi. I have two large free-standing martial arts punching bags that I’d like to donate, but can’t find anyone that will take such large items. They’d also need to be picked up since they’re pretty heavy. Do you know who would be able to use such things?
Hi Sid, thank you for wanting to re-home the punching bags. I’ll see what charity I can come up with and get back to you. Thanks.
Where can I donate my old pair of diving fins?

Where can I donate rugby gear in the Vancouver Lower Mainland area?
Hi Angie, I am looking. Have you tried local rugby sports groups? Sometimes they have need for new players who can’t afford.
I have a set of Mens soccer jerseys to donate, approx. 20 jerseys, various sizes from AS to AXL. Any ideas for an organization that could use them?
Hi Deena, I am looking into it. I will email you as soon as I come up with some options. Are they a set? Like all one colour for a team? Thanks, Michelle Beaupre, CharityWishList.ca
Ditto this comment. Two sets of men’s soccer jerseys (20 each set)
Hi Jeremy, thank you for wanting to donate two sets of men’s soccer jerseys (20 each set) in Vancouver. I have sent an email to a charity (Vancouver Aboriginal Friendship Centre Society) and I am waiting to hear back from them. Please let me know if you find a home for them in the meantime.

Hi Michelle:
I have 4 sets of men’s hockey jerseys (20-22 per set) that I’d like to donate.
They are in different colours, red,white,blue and gold.
They are in prety good shape and would also fit teens.
Hi Brian, that’s wonderful! I have reached out to Urban Native Youth Association in Vancouver BC. They asked that I send them an email with the information. I just did and I have cc’d you on the email. If you haven’t heard from them in the next couple of days, maybe reach out to them to follow-up.
Hope this is helpful,
