About the Event
We are participating in a drive-thru donation event to accept preloved clothing and accessories. This event is part of a larger initiative to divert goods from landfill and support vulnerable people across Australia.
The Australian Red Cross, in partnership with Green Industries SA and other local charities, will host a one-day outdoor event to collect donations and raise funds for humanitarian work.

As a volunteer, you will play a crucial role in setting up and packing down the event, removing donations from car boots, and moving them to a truck onsite using a trolley.
No experience is necessary, and all training will be provided on the day.

* Be fit and able to lift bags/boxes from vehicles
* Wear closed-in, comfortable shoes

* Personal sun protective gear (hat, sunglasses etc.)
