YW Thrift Boutique is a social enterprise offering new and gently used home décor, clothing, and fashion accessories. Every purchase supports women, gender-diverse people, and girls in our community—100% of proceeds go directly to YW programs and services.
YW KW relies on community generosity. We welcome:
Priority is always given to YW Supportive Housing tenants and program participants. Items not used directly are sold at the boutique to fund essential services.
In-kind donations are received and processed for YW Thrift Boutique and YW programs and services at 102 King St. West, Kitchener during store hours.
Learn more about the types of donations we can accept—both for use in YW programs and for resale at YW Thrift Boutique.
YW’s Integrated Holistic Career Services (IHCS) powers YW Thrift Boutique through our career development programs. To learn more about the store-keepers-in-training and other activities that happen behind the scenes, click the button below.
