Mitten Matchup

After five wonderful years of helping lost mittens find their match, we’ve decided it’s time to hang up our hooks. “Mitten Matchup” has been such a fun, cozy community effort — thanks to everyone who donated, searched, and gathered lonely mittens along the way! 🧤

Due to limited time and space, we’ve wrapped up the project. We’re so grateful for all the warmth (and wool!) you’ve shared over the years to warm the hands (and hearts) of Edmontonians 💕 thank you!

Though the weather has been mild for November so far, the days have gotten chillier and winter is around the corner! We are still collecting mittens and gloves (year round actually!) so if you come across any mittens or gloves that have lost their other half, send them our way! We have drop off locations in Glenora, Summerside and St. Albert.

Here's a throwback to our last sorting session - we were excited to see similar mittens to make this match of purple mitts - the more we have the easier the matching! 3 lefties and a rightie made a pair!

Let it snow.... mittens! The first week of snowfall in the winter season is the hardest (or, if you're like me, maybe all of them are hard!) as we all scramble to pull out our mittens and gloves. You might have come across some that are missing its other half and we would love to take them!

Here at Mitten Matchup, we collect lonely mittens or gloves that are no longer part of a pair, to match up with other gloves and mittens of similar size, shape and color to then be donated.

Help us warm the hands of Edmontonians and contact us to find out how!

It was sorting day today and grouping donations by color and style really help! Do you have any mittens or gloves you can donate? Contact us to find our drop off locations in St Albert, Summerside and Glenora. Can you set up a collection box at your workplace or get your hands on a school's lost and found? The more we get, the easier it is to find a match!
