Could you imagine washing 720 loads of laundry in a day? That’s the equivalent of what we washed for our commercial clients, every day for a year - 2.1m kilos of linen at an average of almost 50kg/hr per Vanguard laundry worker.

Excellent program equipping our migrant work force with the capacity to kick start their own futures

[Caitlin Crowley @Cait_Crowley]

Here's an example of how targeted funding can really change lives - in just 12 months a #Toowoomba program has helped around 60 #migrants and #refugees start their own business or gain skills to land a job. Check out their success stories here! @WINNews_TWBA #RefugeesWelcome

3 and half tonnes of linen worth more than $10,000 on its way to Fiji to support those affected by Tropical Cyclone Harold.

We're sending an entire shipping container of sheets and towels across the Pacific, in partnership with @_KOOKAI_'s @KTLFoundation

On par with retail trade for contribution to GDP, employ more than mining + manufacturing combined, so why do we take our charities for granted? Extended #jobkeeper crucial in #COVID19, but our latest report with @Social_Ventures shows we need more. https://t.co/vEueEP7V9x
