Why Choose to volunteer with Australian Red Cross?

• It’s an opportunity to gain new experiences
• You can help improve lives and create a positive impact in your community

The program 

Red Cross Shops sell new and donated clothes, accessories, and homewares to raise funds to help people in need. Each year, we rescue 2,750 tonnes of clothing from landfill, give opportunities to 5000 volunteers, and generate funds to help Red Cross support vulnerable people in Australia and around the world. The proceeds from the sale of items support the vital everyday work of Red Cross, providing relief in times of crisis and care where it's needed most.

The opportunity 

We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to assist with sorting quality donations. Whilst volunteering you'll get the opportunity to:

• Assist with sorting, grading and packing both new and preloved donated goods according to set standards & store requirements

• Help assess the quality and suitability of donated merchandise, and address any quality issues

• No experience is necessary, and all training is provided

Make friends and contribute your skills to help us raise money for those in need.

The impact

Through volunteering with Red Cross your contribution will help us procure quality donations which help to raise funds which bring care and comfort where it’s needed most. 

By volunteering you will also receive access to other opportunities to contribute within the world’s largest humanitarian network.
