Each year, the Saugeen Hospice Annual Garage Sale brings together hundreds of community members with one shared purpose—to help bring compassionate hospice residence care closer to home
Made possible by generous donations and an incredible team of volunteers, the Garage Sale has become one of Saugeen Hospice's signature fundraising events. Thousands of donated items are given a second life while raising funds that support the construction and future operation of our hospice residence.
Planning for the next Annual Garage Sale is already underway. Event dates, donation drop-off information, volunteer opportunities, and shopping hours will be announced here as soon as they have been confirmed.
Follow the Saugeen Hospice Facebook page for the latest info.
How It Works
Our community donates thousands of gently used items throughout the Garage Sale campaign. Volunteers then spend countless hours collecting, sorting, organizing, pricing, and displaying those donations to create an enjoyable shopping experience for everyone who attends.
When the sale opens, shoppers can browse an amazing selection of quality items at affordable prices, knowing every purchase supports Saugeen Hospice. It's a true community effort—from the first donated box to the last item sold.
