If you want to help Ukrainians coming to Montreal

At this moment, Montreal is welcoming a large number of refugees fleeing the war in Ukraine. After facing the challenge of leaving their homes and travelling to a completely new country in horrible circumstances, these brave people must face a new obstacle: start again from nothing. They have to find a new place to live, start organizing their lives in a totally new setting. These tasks are made much harder by the fact that refugees have none of the bare necessities such as personal hygiene items, cooking utensils and furniture. Most refugees don't even have the means to procure these things as the war destroyed or ruined all their possessions.

These unfortunate people can only get started again thanks to donations of people like you and they are incredibly thankful for the help.

Our center takes care of accompanying new refugees including the collection and distribution of donated items. Sadly, we cannot accept most furniture at this time as we do not have the required storage space. Microwave ovens and baby beds are the largest items we currently accept. However, any smaller item is welcomed and will be distributed to those in need.

We thank you hugely for your generosity. We also kindly ask you to share this information and this page with your family and loved ones to help as much as possible the victims of this crisis.
