The Competition is On: Help St John Vic Reach 400,000 Donations!

Last month, we celebrated World Recycling Day, a powerful reminder of how simple, everyday actions can help protect our planet. But the impact doesn’t stop there, you still have the chance to make a real difference, not only for the environment but also for the lifesaving work of St John Ambulance Victoria.

Thanks to Victoria’s Container Deposit Scheme and West Zone operator TOMRA Cleanaway, over 210,000 eligible drink containers have already been donated to St John Vic, so nearly halfway through our goal, which is 400,000 donations by the 10th of May, and we are just getting started. With your help, we can get there! This isn’t just about recycling; it’s about turning waste into something meaningful: funds that support vital first aid services in the community.

Join the Competition!

St John Vic has had the second-best start among TOMRA Cleanaway’s charity partners, proving that together, we can make a difference. But we need your support to keep the momentum going! Every eligible can, bottle, and carton donated brings us closer to our target, fuels friendly competition, and most importantly, supports a cause that saves lives.

Support St John and Win Big!

Win $500 EFTPOS vouchers and First Aid Training for 2!
