GLOW is available for shopping appointments between the hours of 9:30am to 3pm. There are no appointments scheduled past 3pm.
Who can register for the GLOW clothing program?
GLOW is available to equity-deserving individuals living on a limited income.
Clients can register at New Circles and are entitled to four shopping trips of one hour each during the first 2 years after registration, and two shopping trips per year during the 3rd and 4th year. After the fourth year, access to this program is concluded. If for some reason a client does not qualify for the program, New Circles is pleased to refer you to services at other agencies.
How do I apply?
If you are living on a limited income, call 416-422-2591 or email info@newcircles.ca to book your first appointment.
We offer our clothing service to people throughout the GTA who are in need of clothing. Individuals can be referred by an employee of a social service agency, such as a settlement worker, Ontario Works caseworker, employment counsellor, or another social service worker.
What Should I Bring To the GLOW Appointment?
Bring proof of address, proof of status, and a valid photo ID such as a Driver’s License, Health Card, or Canadian Passport for each family member you wish to shop for, along with proof of your family income.
After your first appointment, you may call 416-422-2591 or email info@newcircles.ca to make additional appointments.
