Clothing and Product Donations
CLOTHING DONATIONS HAVE BEEN PAUSED!!
Please note we are pausing clothing donations until MONDAY 10th FEBRUARY 2025.
To ensure our clients feel good and ready to face their next step with dignity and respect, we ask you to be mindful of the clothing you are donating.
ASK yourself:
Would I give this clothing to my best friend to wear to an interview?
Would I be proud to pass this on with dignity and respect?
Is the clothing in excellent condition, modern, contemporary?
Please note there is strictly no leaving donations outside the office and styling boutique outside of these days and hours. Thank you for your understanding and support!
We gratefully accept donations of all good quality clothing (casual, work, and formal) from individuals, companies, and retailers. We ask that clothing donations be new or in near-new condition, and toiletries and make-up donations be new and unopened please.
Donations of workwear, toiletries, and make-up are gifted to our clients, as part of our clothing and styling services.
Donations of casual, formal, and designer wear are sold as part of our social enterprise activities, including our retail store, which is open to the community. Funds raised from these activities are critical to enabling us to run our programs and help more clients.
We are always looking for new fashion partners (fashion retailers / brands) to donate their unsold stock at the end of the season. We are able to provide a donation acknowledgement receipt for all donations.

For the safety of our team, please donate only clean items, in closed / sealed bags or boxes. Please ensure each box / bag weighs under 7kgs.
We are not able to accept clothing that is dirty, stained, ripped, or showing other signs of wear and tear (including used undergarments of any type). We recommend other forms of textile recycling for this type of clothing. We are also unable to accept shoe boxes or hangers, as we do not have the facilities to recycle these items.
Please ensure that any clothing donations are new or in near-new condition, and toiletry / make-up donations are new and unopened.
Our address is 222b Barry Parade, Fortitude Valley. Please do not bring clothing donations to our Retail Store (located at 5/20 King St, Bowen Hills).

We are a small charity and do not have access to a truck and driver, so we are unable to collect clothing. Can't get to us on Drop Off Day? You can also courier or post items to 222b Barry Parade, Fortitude Valley, QLD, 4006
