You can donate your pre-loved clothes to make a difference by reducing the impact diabetes has on Victorians living with the condition and their families. By recycling and donating your pre-loved clothes to Diabetes Victoria you are saving them from ending up in landfill.
Diabetes Victoria and Savers stores have a longstanding partnership that spans over 25 years. As part of this partnership, Savers accepts donations on behalf of Diabetes Victoria and purchases the donated items from Diabetes Victoria. The funds collected through this partnership are then used to support vital diabetes research and programs for the diabetes community in Victoria.
By donating to Diabetes Victoria through Savers, you are contributing to this important cause and help make a difference in the lives of those living with, or at risk of diabetes in Victoria.
Your donation will help to raise funds for diabetes research, life-changing education programs, campaigns and camps for children living with diabetes.
