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

At Two Small Men with Big Hearts, we dedicate 10% of our profits to local organizations and initiatives, fueling our passion for community giving. Motivated by the challenges communities faced during recent years, we’ve intensified our efforts in community assistance. Winter poses significant difficulties for vulnerable groups, and the struggles relayed by our community organization partners have spurred us into action.

Our approach is straightforward yet impactful: we do what we do best—moving. Non-profit organizations often lack the budget for professional moving services, leading to staff diverting their time and energy from vital community services. By offering our moving expertise, we alleviate this burden.

Initially, we provided nearly unlimited donated moves during December and a large part of January. Our services varied from relocating clients to better housing, assisting teams in office moves, to transporting donated items to various locations. We responded whenever our community partners called.

Encouraged by the success of this initiative, we’ve made it a permanent annual feature in our community giving calendar. Each year, we aim to expand our reach and impact. For the current period, from now through to January 24, our goal is to donate 101 moves to our partner organizations.

We’re excited to announce the expansion of our program to include Nanaimo, Kamloops, Lethbridge, and Toronto. This is in addition to our ongoing services in Victoria, Metro Vancouver, Kelowna, Edmonton, Calgary, Red Deer, Grande Prairie, Saskatoon, and Winnipeg.

If you’re part of an organization that provides community services in any of these cities, we’re eager to assist. Get in touch with our Community team using the form below. Let’s make a difference together!

Donated Moving Services

Two Small Men offers donated moving services to community organizations that provide crucial social services like housing, food, and other community support to our most vulnerable community members. We’ve donated all kinds of moves: from helping clients move into their new homes, to delivering donated pallets of food and essential items to our partners, to moving community organizations into new office spaces, saving their staff time, energy, and budget.

Staff Donated Time

We know that it can be difficult to balance work, life, and community. We want our Two Small Men team members to feel empowered to be a part of their community without it costing them their precious personal and family time. Our Staff Donated Time program allows our staff to donate a portion of their paid working hours to volunteering with community organizations throughout Canada.

Shelter Movers Partner

"Shelter Movers is a volunteer-powered charity that provides free moving and storage to those who are leaving abuse in the home. Two Small Men have been important partners; quick to respond and always willing to help. Their crews are punctual, professional, and take care of the belongings. If there are any issues with volume or narrow access or existing damage to furniture, they discuss the plan ahead of time and involve the volunteers and client. We are so grateful to Two Small Men!" — Stephanie Ling, Operations Manager, Shelter Movers Vancouver

Mamas for Mamas Partner

“At Mamas for Mamas, we work hard to ensure that families in our community are taken care of. When we had a mom in crisis show up at our office because her moving crew dropped out last minute, Two Small Men was our first call. Not only did they help her move to a new city with a fresh start, they did so while treating her with the kindness and respect our clients deserve. Two Small Men also played in integral role in helping us expand into our new location. A huge thank you to Two Small Men for your continued support in ensuring no family is left behind.” — Stephanie Horman, National Partnership & Social Media Coordinator, Mamas for Mamas
