Frequently Asked Questions
Why aren’t you accepting any more knitted goods?
We were blown away by your incredible generosity and have absolutely loved seeing your creations. Because of the sheer volume of goods received in 2020, we’re unable to receive and store any further beanies or scarves in 2021.
Cosy knitted goods are quite bulky, and we simply don’t have enough space to store additional donations.
What’s happening to the beanies and scarves that have already been knitted?
Every beanie and scarf that passed our quality control will be sold or used to fundraise in 2021 to raise vital funds for cancer research, prevention programs and support services – with a portion of beanies and scarves being donated directly to cancer patients going through treatment.
Why haven’t they been used yet?
We’ve just completed the sorting of all the knitted items received. As we received many more than anticipated, it has taken longer to sort through all the packages our wonderful knitters sent. Additionally, due to COVID-19 restrictions, our staff and volunteers have had limited time in the office, leading to further delays.
How do I sell my knitting to raise money for people affected by cancer?
Whatever you choose to sell, we can help make your big sale a success! Sign up to ‘Sell Something’ on Do It For Cancer and we’ll send you a free host kit with everything you need. Visit doitforcancer.com.au/sell-something.
