Gatineau, Friday August 9, 2024 – Opening of the 2nd Renaissance boutique in Outaouais.

Renaissance is delighted to announce the opening of its second boutique and donation centre in the Outaouais region, which will also be the organization’s 9th boutique. On August 9th, this new store and donation centre will open its doors at the Riviera Centre in Gatineau.

What can be found in a Renaissance boutique?

In this new space of approximately 3,000 square feet, visitors will find a wide range of higher-end second-hand items, such as near-new or branded clothing, accessories from well-known labels, and trendy decor!  A vast selection, new arrivals every day, and all tax-free!

What is the impact of my donations to Renaissance?

This new donation centre, adjacent to the boutique, will allow residents of the region to drop off clothing and used items they no longer use, thereby helping to divert waste from landfills

Last year alone, the 1,718,200 donations generously offered to Renaissance enabled:

  • to divert 27,335 tons of used items from landfills.
  • to facilitate athe socioprofessional integration of 1,270 people through access to education and employment.

 La Relance and Renaissance: shared values

“As it expands into new parts of Quebec, Renaissance is partnering with other organizations to meet the needs of local people and further our mission,” says Éric St‑Arnaud, CEO of Renaissance. “In the Outaouais region, we have partnered with La Relance because of its recognized expertise with the local clientele and its alignment with our values and mission.”

Both organizations create opportunities for social reintegration and have a shared mission: to provide support and training to help people enter the job market while offering their diverse customers second‑hand goods at affordable prices.

All are invited to come by and see the new boutique for themselves and to bring items in good condition they no longer use to the new donation centre.

By donating and shopping at Renaissance, everyone can do something good for the environment.
