We Care


We care about our Community. We care about our Earth.
 We strive for sustainability at Condobox.



Working with and supporting our community.

We care about our community. Last week, Devon and I (Bronwyn) attended the Paradigm Shift Project’s (PSP) fundraiser (http://www.theparadigmshiftproject.org). We donated a $700.00 package composed of 3 hours of interior design work + a $300 gift certificate for our showroom. The PSP is a really amazing organization that creates documentary films about global issues. These films create awareness as well as give local non-profits educational and fundraising tools to reach new donors. At the fundraiser, Devon and I had the opportunity to meet the Executive Director of the PSP and filmmaker, Rebecca Sweetman. She was very inspiring. It was so nice to be able to support such a wonderful organization.

We are also excited to be donating to the United Way’s Rouge fundraiser (www.unitedwaytoronto.com/rouge) and The Young People’s Theatre Hullabaloo fundraiser (http://youngpeoplestheatre.ca). Come out and support these great organizations with us!


                         But did you hear…. Condobox also has its own CharityOpen Box.
We are very excited to launch our Open Box charity!





Here’s how it works:
From our customers, we purchase new and gently used furniture and give them CX dollars in return. We then donate the furniture, interior design time, and the cost of delivery to those in need. It’s a really amazing way to give back and to recycle furniture.

If you would like to donate furniture or cash to our foundation – please let us know.


Not only do we support our community and work with local artisans, but we order 80% of our products from high-quality Canadian companies. Currently, in our showroom, we have som eunique and environmentally sustainable pieces such as the Eco-Feu fireplace that burns clean ethanol fuel and a beautiful recycled barnwood table (see pictures below).
