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.

It is estimated almost 25,000 Australian’s are homeless in the state of Victoria.

- MacKillop Family Services Learning Centre, Whittington. 30 care packs and 15 girls/boys packs were provided for the centre's VCAL students.
- Launch Housing, Dandenong - 100 care packs provided
- Launch Housing, Southbank - 75 care packs provided
- Launch Housing, St Kilda East - 40 care packs provided, plus some lady care packs and other items for women.
* All Launch Housing locations provide short term crisis accommodation.
All care packs were all sorted and packed by the team at Melbourne EA Games - Asia Pacific on our corporate volunteer day and the products were donated from generous supporters throughout Victoria, with special mention to the following:
- Interior Images

- Treasury on Collins
Also special mention to James Vivian Dermal Therapies for their continued support in collecting and storing so many of the donations from across Victoria.

A reminder of why our services are so important. If you can’t afford to feed your family it is unlikely you can afford basic personal hygiene products.
We support men, women and children in need by providing care packs, made up of your donated total toiletries and airline amenity kits as well as sanitary items and make up and cosmetic samples.
