School outreach program
All of our outreach workshops centre around understanding homelessness and challenging misconceptions about those people experiencing homelessness and hardship.
We understand every school is different and offer flexibility in our activity and workshop options in order to best fit with the capacity and curriculum of every school.
All schools that participate in our outreach program receive a follow up report outlining the impact of their contribution.

Information for organisations
Your organisation can get involved in the following ways:
Become a Drop-off Location
Help us expand our reach by signing up as a designated drop-off location. This allows members of your community to donate essential hygiene items directly at your premises, making it easier for people to contribute. We’ll provide all the necessary promotional materials and support to get you started.
Donate Excess Stock
If your organisation has surplus hygiene products, consider donating them to us. Your contributions will directly support our hygiene kits, helping us meet the growing needs of our partners.
Team Volunteering Days
Engage your team by organising group volunteering days. Your employees can help assemble hygiene kits, write notes that go inside our bags and learn about your impact. It’s a great team-building activity that also makes a direct impact on the community. As our team members are all volunteers this is based on our availability to facilitate and provide stock.
Organise a Donation Drive
Host a donation drive within your organisation or community network. We’ll provide guidelines and promotional materials to help you organise a successful campaign, ensuring essential items are collected and delivered to those who need them most.
Interested? Fill out the form below, and a member of our team will reach out to you with more details on how to get involved.
By partnering with us, your organisation can make a real difference in the community while engaging your team in meaningful ways.
Frequently asked questions
How do we get in contact?
Please fill out the form below and give us all the details of your event.
Do organisations or schools have to pay for a workshop/packing day?
We ask that when you partner with us that you provide stock through a donation drive or give a tax deductible donation so we can keep doing what we are doing and help those in need.
What is your availability?
As we are a grassroots charity with volunteers with other work and family commitments we try our best to accomodate but there may limited availability of volunteers and stock.
Do you have a limited number of hygiene kits we can create?
We cap our team volunteering day/outreach workshops at 200 bags.
