541 Eatery & Exchange: Buttons Explained

We have been so inspired by many Hamiltonians lately doing so much good in our communities. 

Hamilton Clothing Swap has always chosen organizations that exemplify a warm and giving heart that give back to many families and neighbourhoods that need their support the most.

This year, 541 Barton Eatery will be receiving all of our monetary donations to help support their Button Exchange system that does so much good day in and out at their eatery. There is a great need for accessible and affordable food within the city as the price of living continuously goes up. 541 is established to not only provide a social place for ones to gather and play a board game of 'Trouble' or meet a friend, but a place that's always welcoming no matter what social status and a place providing a delicious, fresh and healthy bite to eat.

We can't say enough about this place. If you haven't visited 541 Eatery & Exchange, we suggest you do!

Home Stretch

Well my friends, we're in the home stretch! We are one month away until HCS sets up shop at the lovely Theatre Aquarius.

We've been doing this for awhile, but for some of you this may be your first time. So, we thought we would give you a run down of what the day may look like & what to expect!

• 
  

We carefully curate what we sell at the swap (meaning: we sift through MOUNTAINS of clothing to make sure everything is clean and in good condition).

The swap starts at 9am sharp! So make sure you set your alarm clocks! Skip the coffee & have one on us, as complementary Starbucks coffee will be served throughout the day.

Once you're in the swap we will ask you to donate one non-perishable item as your admission. This will be donated to the Neighbour2Neighbour Community Centre and Food Bank.

At the swap, the sky is the limit! EVERYTHING will be priced at $1 unless it's new and has a tag on it, then it's $2!

That's cheaper than any sale at a box store, cheaper than any outlet, even cheaper than your favourite thrift store! And guess what!? By updating your wardrobe on a shoestring budget, you're also helping families and communities within Hamilton!

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!???

At the checkout (don't forget to bring bags, we will have some while supplies last!) you will have an opportunity to buy buttons through our adopted Button Exchange program from 541 Eatery. Each button is $1 and allows someone to purchase something at the swap free of charge!

Do you guys see a theme here? We love to give back! And we need your help to make a difference!

100% of the monetary donations earned at the swap will be given directly to 541 Eatery and Exchange !
