Juliette Wright OAM
GIVIT Founder & Ambassador
Juliette founded GIVIT after she was surprised at how difficult it was to find someone in genuine need of the high quality baby clothes she no longer needed. She discovered that while many local charities were over-loaded with unwanted or poor-quality goods, they were desperately seeking essential items such as sanitary products for women fleeing domestic and family violence or steel-capped boots for unemployed fathers securing work. Juliette knew there had to be a smarter way to give.
Juliette’s vision, hard work and determination have resulted in millions of donations being distributed across Australia, earning her the title of Australia’s Local Hero 2015 and awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in 2019.
As Founder and Director, Juliette drives GIVIT’s vision to match generosity with genuine need. Her huge heart and passion for helping others has shaped GIVIT’s culture and success.
When I started GIVIT, I knew it would grow as people realised how easy it was to give back to their community. GIVIT’s strength lies in its simplicity and effectiveness. We ensure that donations go directly to where they are needed most, and we created a model that minimises waste and maximises impact. I’m so proud of everything we have collectively achieved.
