Melbourne Packing Days

Friday 28th & Saturday 29th November

*Registrations will open soon

Packing Day is a fun day where volunteers gather to pack thousands of Christmas Boxes across Australia to support families doing it tough. This year, with a team of over 1200 people, we’ll be packing over 17,000 Christmas Boxes across 6 cities. You can help pack in Melbourne with your work team on the Teams Packing Day or anyone is welcome for our Community Packing Day.
