Le Support (full name "Le Support de la Société québécoise de la déficience intellectuelle") is a Quebec non-profit organization that has collected and resold used clothing and household goods since 1988 to fund the cause of intellectual disability. It gathers donations through more than 200 donation bins across the Montreal area, plus home and pre-move pickups and workplace and community drives, then sells the items in its own "Les Trouvailles du Support" thrift stores (in Longueuil and Verdun) or to other second-hand retailers. The proceeds support the Société québécoise de la déficience intellectuelle and projects that improve the lives of people living with an intellectual disability and their families.

What they accept : Used clothing, shoes and accessories plus most small household items — dishes and kitchenware, ornaments and décor, small electronics and electric appliances, sporting goods, linens, records/CDs/DVDs and toys — but no furniture, mattresses, large appliances, books/magazines or baby gear.
