Is there any donation spots open in Kingston during the covid shut down?
Hi Heather,
Yes, “Loving Hands Kingston” helps charities in Kingston collect supplies. https://lovinghandskingston.ca/about-us
They also have a Facebook page.
Since you didn’t mention what you are looking to donate I can’t say for certain they will take what you are looking to donate but they accept a pretty wide range if items. If it turns out not to be a good fit, just let me know what type of item you want to give away and I will suggest another option if possible. Thanks for asking!

Hi Christine, I suggest Loving Hands Kingston. They aren’t a charity themselves, but they exist to help the Kingston charities. They know which charity needs what and can get your items to those who can actually put them to use. Thanks for asking! 613-217-2354 https://lovinghandskingston.ca/
Does anyone know where there are clothes donation bins in Kingston? The one that used to be at the Canadian Tire at the top of Princess isn’t there anymore and I don’t know where to go ( also bc of covid). Any help would be great thank you

Looking to donate, unopened not expired baby formula. Baby bottles opened cleaned. Used baby girl and boy clothing mostly under 6 months. Some baby girl clothing with tags and a couple diaper sleeves unopened size 1. I dont live in kingston but thought maybe there was someone who would accept all of these.
Hi Melanie, thank you, here are some options (I would need to know what city are you in so I can suggest a place closest to you if not Kingston.) You are saying you would bring to Kingston? Please let me know.
OPTIONS I can suggest: “Loving Hands Kingston” (they are volunteers that help out the charities in Kingston) would likely want all those items. Email: lovinghandskingston@gmail.com (613) 217-2354 https://www.instagram.com/lovinghandskingston/

Hello, I have a variety of gently used and new men’s clothes from construction clothing, chef uniforms and work boots to casual attire and dress clothes from my father who recently passed away. Is there an organization that works with men getting into work that need clothing?
Hi Tanya, my condolences on the loss of your father. I have an organization in mind. I’m just going to verify with them and then I will get back to you again. Michelle Beaupre, CharityWishList.ca
Hi Tanya, looks like the best fit would be “Well Suited Kingston” Link: “https://www.facebook.com/WellSuitedKingston/
Here is an excerpt from one of their FB post: “Now accepting donations on Monday’s at the 837 Princess street shop location. Donations will be accepted between 12 and 3pm. Send an email to wellsuitedkingston@gmail.com or send the FB administrator a message with any questions.
We are in the hope that the donations will be “lightly worn” and have more of a modern look to them. Picture your self or your son or your friend putting the donation on. Wouldn’t you want them looking sharp? 👊
Perfect donations are casual sports jackets, modern single breasted suits, formal and casual long sleeved shirts are perfect. Also, fitted shoes and dress shoes of all sizes as well a CSA work boots any size. 👌
Us at Well Suited as well as the men we have suited in the Kingston community thank you! 😊 Thank you so much for the wonderful donations and helping men in your community get suited for a professional career.”
They were suggested to me by “Loving Hands Kingston”.
Hope this helps,
