GIVIT is a national not-for-profit that supports more than 400 charities and community groups across the Capital Region. Through GIVIT.org.au, charities can request exactly what they need, when they need it. GIVIT captures all offers of goods and services online, removing the burden on organisations to collect, sort, store and dispose of donations they do not need. From a pair of school shoes for a recently arrived refugee child to a kitchen starter pack for a family who has escaped domestic violence, GIVIT is the smart and easy way to give. 100% of donated funds received by GIVIT are used to purchase what is needed. We buy locally as much as possible to support small businesses and trades. Whether recovering from a disaster event or experiencing hardship due to circumstances such as COVID-19, domestic and family violence, homelessness, disability, and mental health, GIVIT makes sure people get what they need when they need it most.

How your donation will help

Since the pandemic's start, requests for assistance from GIVIT registered charities and support services have doubled. Many people have been impacted by multiple hardships, compounding to result in a considerable increase in need across the territory. 100% of every donation made to GIVIT through the Canberra Day Appeal will directly fund a current urgent request from a Canberra-based service provider. Be it a fuel or grocery voucher for a family struggling from economic hardship to a pair of school shoes for a child affected by domestic violence, or a computer for youth at risk wishing to further their education, GIVIT matches your donation with those who need it most. GIVIT is the safe and anonymous way to give, ensuring dignity for the recipient while providing donors the confidence that their contribution is making an immediate and meaningful difference in someone's life.
