The Greater Toronto Area Dystonia Support Group is proud to launch its 2026 FundDrive in support of DMRF Canada.
This community-led initiative helps raise funds for dystonia research, education programs, advocacy efforts, and support services for individuals and families affected by dystonia across Canada.
By donating gently used household items, you can help make a meaningful difference. Items collected through this campaign will be donated to Value Village, which in turn provides funding to DMRF Canada based on the volume of goods collected.
How It Works
We're collecting gently used household items that will be donated to Value Village. In exchange, Value Village will make a financial contribution to DMRF Canada, helping support programs and initiatives that improve the lives of people living with dystonia.

- Collect gently used items from your home, friends, family, neighbours, and colleagues.
