Last night comedians Anne Edmonds and Lloyd Langford won $28,000 in a Celebrity Jackpot episode of Deal or No Deal, choosing to donate their good fortune to Vinnies.

Their gift supports people experiencing hardship with warm meals, financial assistance and housing support across Victoria.

We’re so incredibly grateful to Anne and Lloyd for choosing Vinnies. Your generosity will make a real difference to people and families who need a hand up.

Thank you to Grant Denyer, Deal or No Deal and Channel 10 for making this incredible moment possible.

Every donation has a story and this one has footy fans talking. A stash of North Melbourne AFL merchandise has been received at Vinnies Hampton and it's all pretty special.

Footy fever has hit a whole new level and we're genuinely grateful for the donation of 13 incredible pieces. North Melbourne supporters make sure to tune in.

How to purchase:

• All 13 items will be auctioned separately on our eBay 

• Bidding opens Friday 11 September at 2pm and runs for 7 days

To see full range, head to our eBay and get your bids in.

Every Vinnies Shop purchase helps fund programs supporting Victorians experiencing hardship.

Our Maribyrnong social housing project reached new heights and on 2 September, less than one year after breaking ground, the highest structural point has now been reached on the development.

This milestone was marked with a Topping Out Ceremony, bringing together the team and project partners to celebrate how far the development has come. Guests included Councillor Mohamed Semra, Mayor of Maribyrnong, Assistant Treasurer & Member for Fraser, Hon Dr Daniel Mulino MP, and Federal Member for Macnamara & Special Envoy for Social Housing and Homelessness, Josh Burns MP.

The Maribyrnong development will provide 83 new social and affordable homes for Victorians experiencing or at risk of homelessness. 

Pete* never imagined he could lose his job, his home and struggle to afford food.

After his marriage broke down, Pete’s mental health spiralled. He lost his job, then his home and eventually found himself going hungry.

Nutritious food and practical support helped Pete start rebuilding his health and his life.

This Spring, a warm meal can be the first step towards a fresh start.

Victoria's first Vinnies Wedding Pop-Up was a great success with 720 very happy customers, 1,800+ items sold and 1,000+ dresses found new homes.

Queues of people lined up outside and inside the shop for the fitting rooms but patience was a virtue. Our customers happily chatted while they waited and were not disappointed once they enter the shop.

Some customers made a huge effort and travelled from Wodonga, Sydney and Tasmania to get that special dress.

This year's A Call to Serve was held on Saturday 29 August 2026 at St Clare’s Catholic Church, Box Hill North.

The A Call to Serve project honours the contribution of our members and volunteers, who have been steadfast in delivering outstanding service to the people we assist.

We congratulate this year's honourees:
Mary Atkins, Margaret Gearon, Dennis Mirabella
