ALS Canada accepts donations of new or gently used assistive equipment based on the type and age of equipment. Equipment for donation must be in the province of Ontario.
Please note, we do not accept items that are not part of the ALS Canada Equipment Loan Program. This includes stairlifts, feeding tubes and supplies, medication, bedding and some mobility items such as canes and crutches. We are also unable to accept any items that are 5 years or older.
ALS Canada receives no core government funding to support our mission work. The generosity and commitment of thousands of donors and fundraisers make our work possible. There are many benefits of donating equipment:
Over time, someone living with ALS will need different types of equipment as the disease progresses and they lose mobility and communication abilities. Donated equipment can have a significant positive impact on people living with ALS and their families in many ways:
Donated equipment, such as hospital beds, wheelchairs, and lift systems, can improve the well-being of people living with ALS. By facilitating mobility, personal care, and communication, equipment can enhance the ability of people living with ALS to complete essential daily activities and tasks with confidence for a more fulfilling and independent life.
