Service Experience

Volunteering at Vinnies Op Shop is a great way to give back to the community, make new friends and gain service hours. Vinnies is a Catholic organisation which aims to follow in Jesus’ footsteps to aid the most vulnerable in our communities. At the Vinnies Op Shops, there is a wide range of jobs that anyone with any skill set can do. From pricing the clothes, bringing in donations to even running the cashier! There’s something for everyone to do, you just need a positive attitude and a friendly smile!
