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.

When was the last time you ran out? Had a shower without soap? Brushed your teeth with your finger? “We ran out a while ago.” These were the words we heard this afternoon when we made a donation of toiletries to a client who offers daytime meal, showers and laundry facilities to rough sleeping homeless. We ran out translates to our clients didn’t have access to a toothbrush and a bar of soap and so they went without. Please ensure we don’t run out - please keep your donations coming. We have 3 bookings for packing days in the next 6 weeks with a massive 190 corporate volunteers standing by to help us get your donations in to our care packs and Into the hands of the people who need them the most so please get your donation to us so we don’t need to hear the words we ran out again.
