Good Sammy is a social enterprise focused on providing meaningful employment opportunities and pathways for Western Australians with disability. Everything we do is motivated by this purpose, and has been since we were founded in 1958. Our vision is a better future for people with disability and we believe creating inclusive workplaces is the foundation for an inclusive society.
At Good Sammy we offer a variety of structured development programs and employment choices to encourage people living with a disability to explore life. We empower people to make their own choices so they can identify their goals, feel connected to their community and be supported as they work towards independence and meaningful employment.
What we do
At Good Sammy we currently employ more than 265 supported staff in a variety of roles. Our 27 op shops, located from Albany to Geraldton, are the public face of our organisation and allow Supported Employees to explore opportunities in the retail industry, as well as process the generous donations we receive from the community. We reduce waste and help the environment by recycling 6 million kg of used goods each year and as an official collection organisation for the Containers for Change program.
Good Sammy Kwinana Op Shop & Containers For Change
As one of the largest op shops in the area, our Kwinana store is definitely worth the visit with its wide range of items and friendly and helpful staff.
Located right next to a Salvos Store and an Animal Welfare Op Shop, you can make a day of thrift shopping and second-hand treasure hunting.
Looking for a place to recycle your drink containers? Bag them, tag them, and drop them off at our store. Your refund will be sent to your Containers For Change scheme ID.
By shopping with us, you’re also supporting Good Sammy’s vision and mission to create meaningful employment opportunities and pathways for Western Australians with disabilities, and to empower people with the confidence and skills to pursue independence and a brighter future.
