Giving Back
Why do we give back?
Our team has found that giving back to our communities informs our purpose and passion – giving back feels good. More importantly, it has a meaningful impact on some of our most vulnerable community members. Two Small Men donates 10% of profits back to community organizations and initiatives to power our passion for giving.
We also believe that businesses have a social responsibility to give back and help to create social change in the communities where their teams live and operate.
Two Small Men has created partnerships with local and national charitable organizations across Canada, and our efforts continue to grow each year.

Two Small Men's 101 Donated Moves
Two Small Men with Big Hearts donates 10% of profits back to local organizations and initiatives to power our passion for community giving. In 2020, we were inspired to elevate our giving back programs after seeing the widespread negative impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on communities in Canada. Winter is an especially difficult time for vulnerable community members, and we were hearing about the struggles our community organization partners were facing. We knew the Two Small Men with Big Hearts team had to help.
We decided the best way to help would be to continue doing what our team does best — moving. Not-for-profit organizations often don’t have the budget to hire movers, which means moves are completed at the expense of their staffers’ time and energy. This can take them away from completing the crucial community services they provide, and we want to do our part to help prevent that.
Two Small Men offered nearly unlimited donated moves to our community organization partners for the duration of December and most of January. Our moving services were used by community organizations in a number of ways: to move their clients who were transitioning to new and improved housing situations, moving their teams to new office spaces, or picking up and delivering pallets of donated items to their warehouses and offices. We answered the call from our community partners whenever they needed us.
After the success of this season of giving, we decided to install this program as a permanent annual fixture in our community giving calendar. In 2021, we more than quadrupled the number of moves we donated, and in 2022 our goal is to donate 101 moves to our partnered organizations from November 18th to January 18th.
