Charity Partnerships
Good360 is a marketplace for not for profits, schools and community groups who matches goods with the people who need them most, when they need them most.
In 2020 they matched over $60 million worth of products.
We are proud to be a founding partner of Good360 Australia.
We surveyed over 500 of Good360's registered organisations and discovered 9 out of 10 are in continual need of our core products such as quilt covers, pillowcases and towels. They were from a wide variety of causes including:
Inspired by this research along with our history of giving, we're using our existing business framework to create social impact. Linen House will achieve this by distributing products to these organisations in partnership with Good360.
As one of our customers, you can further support LH Cares by donating at any of our outlet stores, or through the Linen House website. If you know a charity that would benefit from any product donations please have them contact Good360.

Housing All Australians
Housing All Australians (HAA) uses a commercial lens to help address Australia's chronic shortage of low-income affordable housing. Their aim is to re-position the discussion and action on social and affordable housing for those on low to very low incomes. Unless solutions are found there will be a significant burden for future generations, with disastrous economic and social consequences.
One of HAA's initiatives are pop up shelters using re-purposed vacant buildings awaiting redevelopment, to provide transitional accommodation. Linen House is the homewares partner serving the shelters with products to make them comfortable and feel like home.
Sacred Heart Mission
Linen House has a long-standing relationship with the Sacred Heart Mission, who support adults of all ages and backgrounds experiencing homelessness, disadvantage and social exclusion with free meals, care, and accommodation.
We support the Journey 2 Social Inclusion (J2SI) program by donating home-starter packs for individuals and families moving from homelessness back into their own accommodation.
"It has been fantastic to have basic necessities like sheets and towels on hand so clients have these things from the very first night."
