About the organisation
Founded in 1946, South Melbourne Community Chest is a non-profit organisation that raises funds for distribution to local community groups. We raise money from our opportunity shop, from financial donations, and from bequests.
Unlike most opportunity shops we are not part of a wider chain, we are embedded in the local community. Our goods donations come from locals, our beneficiaries are local groups, our volunteers and staff are mostly local too.
The opportunity shop is run by a paid manager, a paid part-time staff member and a great team of volunteers. The Community Chest is overseen by a committee of management, also
