Every Little Bit Helps – Giving back to people in need

Supported Locations

Care Packs Donated

Items Donated

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 throughout Australia. Find your nearest drop-off location using our Drop Off Locator Tool. 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.

Thanks for the shout out @townhall peopleEver wonder what happens to the bottles of shampoo/conditioner/moisturiser that you don’t completely use during your hotel stay? A lot of them end up in landfill... unless Every Little Bit Helps gets to them first! ELBH is committed to collecting hotel toiletries, inflight amenity kits, cosmetic samples and giving them to people in need. What a concept! Got some of these in your bathroom’s bottom drawer that’s only collecting dust? To find out where you can send them, to someone who really needs it, visit: www.townhallpeople.com/every-little-bit-helps/ ... See MoreSee Less

OPERATIONS UPDATE: How is everyone doing? It has been a couple of months since our last Operations Update so we are taking this opportunity to update you as well as to ask how are you and to say thank you for your continued support.Every couple of months we stop to recognise the incredible army of people who contribute to Every Little Bit Helps in so many ways. ** Financial Support **Thank you to Ubisoft, Kerrie Carmody, Allan Dall, Kobe Moran, Beth Archer & Nicole Tatem for your recent financial support. As a grassroots, 100% volunteer-run charity, every dollar we received is used to directly support people in need. Our single biggest expense is our red mesh bags which we pack our care packs into. These bags are currently costing us almost $1 each with the current exchange rate and increased shipping costs. All donations over $2 are fully tax-deductible and donations can be made via this link - www.elbh.org.au/financialsupport/** Donations Made **Since our last operations update in January, we have donated over 820 care packs to various locations nationally. Since we started, we have always taken the time to thank the many individuals and corporations that so generously support us, allowing us to reach so many people in need. As we have often said – without you, they have nothing.** Personal Support **Brooke MeehanMargot Stabback and friendsM.
