Our Story
Every year in Australia, $2.5 billion of unsold household goods are wasted and 1 in 8 Australians are living below the poverty line.
Good360 Australia exists to reduce this need and waste by connecting businesses brand new unsold goods to people in need, creating a Circle of Good, where everyone benefits.
Why it started
Our founder, Alison Covington AM, found out about Good360 in the USA in 2012 and thought it was a game changer. There were lots of charities rescuing food in Australia, but no organisation was saving unsold brand-new goods, at scale, from going to waste.
Good360 had been operating in the US for 30 years at that stage and had connected $7 billion of new goods to people in need. Why didn’t we have the same solution here in Australia? Alison knew she had to start Good360 Australia and connect the spare brand-new goods of business with vulnerable Australians who need them most.
Our Mission
Our mission is to raise funds that will enable us to deliver $1billion worth of donated brand-new goods to communities across Australia and ensure the excess goods and services that business produce every year flow to people in need rather than going to waste and stressing people, communities and our planet.
Every one dollar donated to Good360 results in $20 worth of goods being delivered to Australians in need.
