… make a donation of used items …
Having a clean out? We welcome gently used households items, including collectables and jewelry, for our annual Garage Sale and Bazaar. These must be fully working and complete. Due to the high cost of storage and disposal and a lack of storage in the hospital due to construction, we do not accept any items without looking at it first. We do not accept used clothing, linens, electronics (anything that plugs in) or furniture. Please call our Gift Shop at 250-544-7676 x 23400 during open hours to arrange for one of our members to contact you and review the items you have in mind.
Our crafty crew always welcomes donations of unused yarns for knitting and crocheting, and cotton fabrics suitable for quilting and children’s clothing. Due to limited storage space, we only accept the following at the Gift Shop.
- FINISHED ITEMS such as quilts, knit and/or crochet items.
-
Complete balls/skeins of cotton yarn, baby yarn, sock yarn, and sport weight yarn. We do not want expensive silk, mohair and other fancy or novelty yarns. PLEASE no partial balls or tangled messes. We welcome all colours except white at the shop. Other yarns can be donated, but need to be checked and picked up.
Contact us through the Gift Shop or send an email if you have unfinished items or craft supplies and we will arrange to have a look and pick up suitable items.
… or make a donation of your time.
Got extra time on your hands? Volunteering just a few hours per month is both fun and rewarding! Come join us at a meeting, the 2nd Tuesday of each month, (not July/August) at the Saanich Fairgrounds. More information available at the Saanich Peninsula Hospital Gift Shop.
Whichever way you choose, you have our thanks!,
