Goodies aside, by shopping at Vinnies, you’re also making a positive impact in your community. Vinnies shops raise vital funds for specialised support services and community programs that assist people experiencing poverty and inequality.

These include financial counselling, emergency assistance, housing, homelessness support and mental health services. So, every purchase you make at Vinnies helps to support vulnerable Western Australians.

You can also make a positive impact by donating your quality pre-loved items to Vinnies. By doing so, you help keep these items out of landfill and give them a second life.

Last financial year, Vinnies shops in WA sorted and processed a whopping 587 tonnes of donations, which amounted to approximately two million items.

These donations were either resold in stores or used for Vinnies Emergency Assistance Program, providing Western Australians in need with free clothing and essential household items such as furniture, kitchen utensils, bedding and mattresses.

Also in the last financial year, Vinnies WA delivered over 25,000 household items to people in need – so, your donations really make a difference in the community and help those who need it most.

And with the current cost of living pressures, the demand for assistance is only growing. Your donations are more important than ever in supporting those who are struggling.

Plan your trip today – and don’t forget to bring those donations! Whether you’re shopping for winter essentials, donating preloved items or volunteering your time, every bit counts.

Get involved, have fun, and make a difference to your wardrobe, the community and the environment with Vinnies WA.
