WAYS TO GIVE
Your Generosity Powers The Depot.
Together, you help us respond to immediate needs, build long-term community health, and tackle the root causes of food insecurity. Every contribution, big or small, helps create welcoming spaces where people grow, cook, and share food, and take action together.
Thank you for being a part of our circle of care.

MAKE A GIFT IN MEMORY OF A LOVED ONE
DONATE STOCKS & SECURITIES
Donating publicly traded securities such as stocks, bonds, or mutual funds, is one of the most tax-efficient ways to give. By donating securities directly, your gift can go further for you and for The Depot. You can donate securities through your financial institution (or advisor), or by going to the CanadaHelps Security Donation page, completing the form and selecting The Depot Community Food Centre as your charity. Questions? Contact us at development@depotmtl.org
LEAVE A LEGACY GIFT
Leaving a gift in your will or naming The Depot as a beneficiary of your RRSP, RRIF, or life insurance policy is a powerful way to ensure nourishing food and strong community connections for generations to come.
If you’d like to learn more or discuss your options confidentially, please contact us at development@depotmtl.org
OTHER WAYS
In-kind donations: We do not accept individual food donations. Financial gifts allow us to purchase fresh, culturally diverse food at wholesale prices — on average, every $1 donated buys $3 worth of food for the community.
For bulk food donations, contact marche@depotmtl.org or 514-483-4680 ext. 205.
Donate clothes to Déjà Vu: When you drop off clothes at Déjà Vu Thrift Store (6910 Rue Saint-Jacques, Montréal, QC H4B 1V8), they donate $3 to The Depot for every two bags received.
It’s a simple way to support us and a local, community-minded business. Déjà Vu has become a significant partner, contributing nearly $10,000 annually. That number will keep growing with your support.
