The Salvation Army Auburn is given opportunity to raise funds for their Community Programs by having collectors outside each of the entrances of the Royal Easter Show.

Volunteer Collectors

Royal Easter Show is being held from Friday 22nd March - Tuesday 2nd April 2024.

Collect outside the entrances to the Royal Easter Show.

You will be provided with all collecting materials; such as a table, umbrella, and collection bucket.

A chair (you do not have to stand for the 3.5 hours) and water is provided for you. There is coverage if it is raining.

You do not need to ask for donations – in fact we are not allowed but people are very generous, and we just need to smile and say hello to everyone.

1 or 2 people per shift (see below) - must be over 18 or accompanied by an adult.
