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 Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Newcastle, ACT and Sydney or alternatively you can mail your donations to us at PO Box 340, Forestville NSW 2087.
Our organisation is proudly run 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.

This man! We are so incredibly lucky to have had Ezekiel Simat volunteering with us for the last 12 months. It may hard to believe but this man’s heart is bigger that his muscles and while we don’t usually circle our individual volunteers we do want to thank Zeke for all that he does to ensure our corporate packing days are a great day for everyone. If you want to learn more about Zeke - he is in this months Vogue Australia and we are certain it won’t be long to we loose him permanently to his acting and modelling career. Thanks for being part of the team Zeke
Please join us in thanking our friends at United Airlines Australia who today have helped us create 400 Care Packs and Lady Care Packs for people in need who are homeless including victims of domestic violence. Thanks for having us today and for your generous support.
This has been our last #corporatevolunteering event for 2018. In total we have now created 40,000 care packs in four and a half years. Of course none of this could be possible without your generous support so again we take this opportunity to say thank you for remembering - Every Little Bit Helps Ltd
