Help Good360 to assist disaster affected communities

Wondering how you can help your fellow Australians who are impacted by disaster?

A resilient response to Disaster Recovery

Good360 helps get the right goods, to the right people, at the right time throughout all stages of a disaster providing hope and dignity to communities adversely impacted.

Australia has experienced back-to-back disasters over the last two years and people who would not normally ask for help are now part of a new vulnerable community – the need is greater than ever before and demand is expected to continue to grow.

Good360’s approach to Disaster Recovery is strategic and sustainable providing a resilient response throughout all stages of a disaster. We use a coordinated and collaborative process partnering with over 300 Australian businesses to provide the right goods where and when they are needed the most. We’ll be there in the early days with personal care items, clothing, hygiene and PPE goods and we’ll be there for the long term when the media spotlight has dimmed, months and years after the event with goods to help rebuild lives including furniture and homewares.

Good360 is a matchmaker, connecting brand-new goods donated by businesses to people and communities who need them the most.

We ensure that the right goods are delivered to the right people at the right time – throughout all stages of disaster recovery.

We’ll be there in the early days with personal care items, supplies for shelters, and cleaning/mucking out products and we’ll be there long after the media spotlight has dimmed months and years later with furniture, mattresses, home goods and other necessities to help impacted communities through the recovery journey.

We are currently assisting in the following areas:

Effective disaster recovery efforts face these challenges

of goods donated during times of disaster ends up in landfill or otherwise goes to waste

of giving is received within the first six weeks of a disaster

of disaster giving is designated for long-term recovery

Our approach to Disaster Recovery

The lifecycle of a disaster is a marathon, not a sprint and Good360 focuses on a six stage recovery framework for giving funds, goods and volunteer time during disasters: preparedness, response, recover, rebuild, refurnish and relive. These six stages help businesses and everyday Australians understand where the need lies at any given time throughout a disaster’s lifecycle. You can learn more about our resilient response framework here.

1. Preparedness

Being prepared in advance helps mitigate the impact of a disaster on communities.

Items: water, hygiene items, shelter kits.

2. Response

In the immediate aftermath, the greatest concern is for the protection of life and property. 

Items: soap, nappies, flashlights, blankets.

3. Recover

This phase focuses on cleaning up and fixing the damage brought on by the disaster.

Items: mops, shovels, tarps, buckets, cleaners.

4. Rebuild

As survivors move beyond the recover phase, focus shifts to rebuilding homes and businesses etc.

Items: tools, paint, building materials, insulation.

5. Refurnish

As displaced families move back, they often need to replace most or all of their household goods. 

Items: furniture, rugs, appliances, bedding.

6. Relive

While this is the final stage, survivors may still need help to them get back to life as normal.

Items: school supplies, clothes, toys, games.

Past Campaigns

Since we began, Good360 has collaborated with businesses and Not for Profits to deliver goods to rural farming communities across Queensland and NSW that were doing it tough with floods and drought. 

There are many stages in the lifecycle of a disaster – the last one being the long-term return to everyday life. With the expense, trauma and disruption that comes from dealing with a disaster, many families need assistance with items that help them in the comfort of everyday life for a long period after the first responders have left and rebuild has occurred. 

Good360 is there to provide relief during these times with everyday items like school supplies, work and school clothes, toys, crockery, games and shoes as well as special items like Christmas and birthday presents.
