SUMMARY:Kids Clothing Swap at Rideau Public School
DESCRIPTION:Kids Clothing Swap at Rideau Public School: Save Money, Reduce Waste, and Support Your Community!\nChildren grow up quickly, and sometimes it feels like they’ve outgrown their clothes before they’ve even had a chance to wear them! What if those perfectly good clothes, books, and toys could find a new home while helping another Kingston family?\nOn Saturday, October 24, 2026, PopCycle invites Kingston families to the Kids Clothing Swap at Rideau Public School, a community event that makes it easier to save money, reduce waste, and give children’s belongings a second life.\nRunning from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, this welcoming pop-up event brings families together around a simple but powerful idea: keep useful items circulating within our community rather than letting them go to waste.\nA Little Something for Every Growing Family\nWhether you’re looking for a warm winter jacket, everyday clothing, a pair of boots, a new bedtime story, or a little toy to brighten someone’s day, the Kids Clothing Swap offers an opportunity to discover pre-loved treasures without the expense of buying everything new.\nFamilies can browse a selection of gently used children’s clothing, books, and small toys, giving items that still have plenty of life left in them a chance to be enjoyed by another child.\nAnd here’s what makes this event especially meaningful: everything is offered on a Pay What You Can basis, with all money raised going directly to the school.\nIt’s an affordable way to support your family while contributing to a great local cause.\nHave Children’s Clothing, Books, or Toys to Donate?\nBefore the shopping begins, PopCycle is inviting Kingston families to help fill the tables!\nIf you’ve got closets full of clothes that no longer fit, books your children have outgrown, or small toys waiting for another adventure, consider donating them.\nDonation drop-off takes place October 22 and 23, from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM, at Rideau Public School.\nOrganizers are accepting clean, gently used clothing for children ages 0 to 14, along with children’s books and small toys.\nSimply bring your donations to the school at 9 Dundas Street and follow the signs on Toronto Street.\nEvery donated item helps make the event more successful, giving local families access to affordable essentials while keeping perfectly usable belongings out of landfills.\nSmall Actions, Big Community Impact\nBeyond the bargains, the Kids Clothing Swap celebrates something that makes Kingston special: neighbours helping neighbours.\nFor families navigating the rising costs of raising children, community initiatives like this can make a meaningful difference. They also provide an opportunity to teach children about sharing, sustainability, generosity, and the value of looking after one another.\nInstead of purchasing something new, families can discover the joy of reusing what already exists. Instead of throwing away outgrown clothing, they can help another child enjoy it.\nAnd because all proceeds support Rideau Public School, every contribution helps give back to the community.\nWhether you’re donating, shopping, or doing a little of both, the PopCycle Kids Clothing Swap is a wonderful reminder that something your family no longer needs might be exactly what another family is looking for.\nEvent Details\nEvent: Kids Clothing Swap by PopCycle\nDate: Saturday, October 24, 2026\nTime: 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM\nLocation: Rideau Public School\n9 Dundas Street, Kingston, Ontario\nAdmission/Purchases: Pay What You Can.
