The Gender Affirming Project

The GVWG’s Binder Try-On events are here to support any binder wearing people and people who support them with binder sizing, and information.

Binder Try-On events offer:

Sample binders in all sizes and nude shades of GC2B brand binders for folks to try on and confirm accurate sizing
Private space to try on the sample binders
Limited pre-loved binders available for free that have been donated (sizes, colours, brands, and styles vary)
Staff with experience wearing binders who are happy to share best practices and tips
Information about community resources and supports

Upcoming Dates:

KPL Main Branch (85 Queen St N, Kitchener)

October 24, 2026, 2 - 4pm
November 7, 2026, 2 - 4pm

We will also be doing binder try-ons as part of our Clothing Swap event on Saturday September 26, 12 - 4 pm at 44 Gaukel St.

Donating Binders:

We are collecting pre-loved binders to re-home to people in need in our community. If you're considering making a donation, please ensure the binder is clean and in good repair. We accept donations at our Binder Try-On events, or donations can be dropped off to Thrive HIV Prevention & Support's Kitchener office (1770 King St E) during their open hours.
