Officeworks raises over AU$1 million for charity
July 19, 2022
This year’s Officeworks “Make A Difference Appeal” has raised AU$1,000,496 ($689,826/ €672,789) for local causes across the country.
The focus for this year was children’s health and education, with 14 local community organisations benefiting from the support by Officeworks and its customers.
Officeworks store teams selected the organisations they wanted to help based on what felt most relevant to their local communities and during the month of June, customers were encouraged to round up the cost of their Officeworks purchase or make a direct contribution at the check-out in store or online.
Officeworks Managing Director Sarah Hunter said: “Our annual Officeworks Make A Difference Appeal aims to support local causes and organisations close to our hearts by providing them with the resources they need to continue their important work in our local communities where we live and work. Together with our customers, our fundraising efforts will help make bigger things happen for Australian children and make a positive difference to our communities, right across the nation.”
Celebrating its fifth year, the Make A Difference Appeal is part of Officeworks’ People & Planet Positive Plan commitment to raising AU$5 million ($3.45 million/ €3.36 million) for local community causes by 2025.
The initiative has raised a total of $4,357,455 ($3,004,489/ €2,930,688) to date.
