Every Little Bit Helps is a charity. Established in July 2014, we collect, pack and redistribute unwanted hotel toiletries, inflight amenity kits, cosmetic and make-up samples to those in need including the homeless, asylum seekers and victims of domestic violence as well as troubled youths through Women’s Refuge, Homeless Shelters, Youth Centres, Asylum Centres and Community Centres as well as via small Government and Community Groups.
The catalyst for establishing Every Little Bit Helps was learning that while there are many facilities providing laundry and shower facilities, most are able to supply little more than running water and previously did not have regular and reliable access to basic toiletry products.
We have drop-off locations in Brisbane, Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra, Perth Adelaide. Alternatively you can mail your donations to us at PO Box 340, Forestville NSW 2087.
Our organisation is proudly run 100% by volunteers across Australia but like every organisation we need to cover our running costs. These include shipping and distribution of our kits to the people we support, annual insurance and the bags we pack our kits in to. We appreciate any offers of financial support.

If you know an Australian who deserves recognition - please vote for them.Helping others is something millions of volunteers do in NSW.

This week is National Volunteering Week - an opportunity for us to recognise and thank the generous individuals and corporations who have supported us over the last 12 months.
We hope you like these photos featuring the organisations we have worked with as well as our 3 public packing days hosted since May 2018. What we haven't been able to capture is the countless donations we have also received and the tireless effort put in every week by our operations team.
Thank you to each and every one of you for your generous support and thank you for remembering Every Little Bit Helps

Today we were joined by the awesome team at Thermo Fisher Scientific who, as part of their annual community give back program, spent the day volunteering with us. As a result we were able to make almost 700 Care Packs and Lady Care Packs for people in need who are homeless including victims of domestic citizens- the single biggest cause of homelessness in Australia.
Thanks for having us team. It has been a pleasure working with you and thank you for remembering Every Little Bit Helps.
