Harvey Norman is proud to continue their partnership with Good360 in their mission to combat material deprivation and ensure every Australian has access to essential home goods. The Home Impact Area report highlights the significant impact of our collective efforts, and the ongoing challenges faced by many communities.
The Challenge of Material Deprivation
Material deprivation refers to the lack of basic household items that make a home safe, functional, and comfortable. Over 9.1 million Australians are feeling the pressure of the cost-of-living crisis, with many unable to afford essentials like clothing, shoes, and home goods. This lack of access affects the daily life, mental health, and overall well-being.
Good360’s Role
Good360 plays a crucial role in bridging this gap by connecting brand-new household goods to those in need. In the first three months of 2025 alone, Good360 has distributed over $2.6 million worth of home items through its extensive network of charities.
Impact of Communities
Access to essential items like furniture, cookware, and bedding can transform lives. It allows individuals to focus on other goals such as employment and community participation. For example, a single parent can prepare nutritious meals with proper cookware, and children can get a good night’s sleep on a proper bed.
Harvey Norman’s Contribution

We’re proud to see how these donations provide not just practical support, but also a sense of security and hope.
