Everyone wants an inclusive and sustainable community.
When you choose Good Sammy, you are making a difference. To both the environment by supporting a circular economy, and to the many Western Australians living with a disability who want to achieve their employment goals.
If you are ready to make a difference in your community, here are some ways to start:
-
Shop at your local Good Sammy store.
When you shop in-store or online, you shop with purpose. You make a difference to the environment by shopping for quality pre-loved goods and create employment opportunities for people with disability as they build and practice retail skills.
-
Volunteer with us.
Consider volunteering either in one of our op shops or within our various departments. There are many extra benefits to donating your time and skills to Good Sammy. Most importantly, you make a difference by giving back to the community and supporting people with disability on their journey to employment. To find out more, contact our volunteer team.
-
Donate your quality goods to our cause.
You can gift us donations directly to our op shops during opening hours, or via our community collection points. We also offer free home collections for large donations and furniture. The revenue raised through the sale of donated goods funds the work we do to make a difference to Western Australians with disability.
-
Donate your containers to us.
Choose to donate your Containers for Change to a good cause – when you choose Good Sammy, this means creating training and job opportunities for people with disability. All you need to do is bag them up and drop them off at your local authorised refund point, nominate Good Sammy (ID: C10275962) and we’ll take care of the rest.
-
Gift us a monetary donation.
