Volunteer with purpose

Help turn community generosity into practical support.

Haven Collective volunteers help honour donated goods, support people with dignity and keep useful items moving through the op shop, marketplace, food relief, delivery network and community support pathways.

This is for people who believe second-hand should never mean second best, and that time, skill and care can make a real difference in someone's life.

Mission-aligned roles

Choose practical work that helps donations become dignity, support and community impact.

Retail support

Serve customers, present quality stock, keep the store welcoming and help affordable essentials stay accessible.

Sorting and care

Sort, grade and prepare donations so each item can be sold, gifted, packed or directed where it is needed most.

Photos and listings

Photograph products, check details and help quality preloved items reach customers through HavenMarketplace.

Warehouse flow

Move stock, organise locations, prepare furniture and keep donation processing clear, safe and purposeful.

Community support

Help prepare clothing, bedding, kitchen and emergency packs for people and agencies who need practical help.

Food relief

Support OurTable pathways, food movement, packing, pantry support and aligned food security work.

Events and markets

Help with pop-ups, markets, local campaigns, fundraising days and community engagement.

Repairs and setup

Use practical skills for minor repairs, furniture checks, household setup and preparing useful goods well.

Accredited driver program

HavenGo connects drivers with volunteer and paid delivery work.

HavenGo is the driver pathway behind Haven Collective logistics. Accredited drivers can help move donations, food, furniture, marketplace purchases, emergency supplies and practical support packs.

The program is being built so eligible drivers can be paid for approved deliveries from integrated apps and registered businesses, including Direct Donation, OurTable, HavenMarketplace and other community delivery channels.

Volunteer deliveries still matter. The difference is that drivers who take on regular, higher-cost or business-connected deliveries can move through accreditation, job matching and payout setup instead of carrying every cost themselves.

Direct Donation Pickup donated goods, emergency items and practical essentials from local donors.
OurTable Move food relief, pantry supplies and kitchen support between partners and families.
HavenMarketplace Deliver local purchases, furniture, homewares and community support orders.
Registered businesses Support approved business deliveries, partner pickups and paid logistics tasks.
How it works

One mission, clear pathways.

The portal helps match people to the right pathway: simple volunteering, retail and warehouse shifts, community support tasks, or HavenGo driver accreditation where licences, checks and payout details may be needed.
