MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA, December 6, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As the holiday season approaches, local businesses Montreal Mini-Storage, Crown Movers, and Café Olimpico are joining forces to make a difference for Montrealers facing hardships by launching two heartfelt initiatives—a furniture drive for the Welcome Collective and a toy drive for The Montreal Children’s Hospital. The concurrent campaigns will bring warmth and joy to those in need this December.

Furniture Drive for the Welcome Collective
From now until December 23, 2024, Montrealers are encouraged to donate lightly used furniture at the Holiday Giving Locker located at Montreal Mini-Storage’s Ville Saint-Laurent branch (700 rue Hodge, Ville Saint-Laurent). Crown Movers has generously pledged to assist with the collection and transportation of these donations.

On December 24, the donated furniture will be delivered to the Welcome Collective; a Montreal-based organization dedicated to supporting refugee claimants as they begin rebuilding their lives in the city. The donations will support their Essential Goods Program to ensure all newcomers have the tools and furnishings they need to make their new homes feel safe and welcoming.

Toy Drive for The Montreal Children’s Hospital

In addition, we are holding a toy drive to bring smiles to seriously ill children undergoing treatment at The Montreal Children’s Hospital. New toy donations can be dropped off at Café Olimpico’s Westmount location and at Montreal Mini-Storage’s Lasalle and Hodge sites until December 18, 2024. We encourage you to consult this toy list prioritized by The Montreal Children’s Hospital this year. Alternatively and due to the postal strike we encourage you to make any monetary gifts online or to call the office of The Montreal Children’s Hospital Foundation at 514 934-4846 or 1 866 934-4846 (toll free). Your generous toy donation will brighten the holiday season for hundreds of sick children who will not be home for the holidays.

Community Support and Gratitude

To thank the community for their generosity, Montreal Mini-Storage, Crown Movers, and Café Olimpico are offering exclusive gift cards to all donors in exchange for their toy and furniture donations. Additionally, each organization has pledged a $1,000 cash donation to the Welcome Collective and The Montreal Children’s Hospital Foundation, encouraging other local businesses to join in the spirit of giving.

“We’re delighted to support our neighbours and make the holiday season a little brighter for those who need it most,” said Simon Berman, Co-Founder and CEO of Montreal Mini-Storage. “By partnering with Crown Movers and Café Olimpico, we’re combining efforts to make a meaningful impact while also spotlighting the incredible work of the Welcome Collective and The Montreal Children’s Hospital.”
