It Starts with One

We crowdsource essential items, one by one, and donate them to organizations that require immediate help.

How #one2give Works

Make a List

#one2give selects partner organizations and answers their simple - but critical - lists of needs. These needs (such as soap, toothpaste or cleaning supplies) are often on most shopping lists, so #one2give asks donors to add two of any item to their cart: one to keep and #one2give.

Crowdsource

Once the list is created, we launch a two- to three-week awareness campaign, inviting our network to drop donations at any one of our 20+ Drop Spots. Drop Spots are conveniently located at volunteer homes throughout Toronto.

Deliver

On Drop Day, which is pre-determined by #one2give and our partner organizations, our team coordinates delivery of items. Donors are also invited to bring donations directly to the shelter on this day for a contact-free drop-off.
