Roll For Good

Corporate volunteering in Brisbane with real impact

Corporate volunteering that supports community and sustainability


The Nest’s Roll For Good initiative is a practical way for Brisbane businesses to connect employee engagement with sustainability and corporate social responsibility.

With two structured packages to choose from, Roll For Good allows employees to contribute to a local circular economy initiative through purpose-driven volunteering that is both hands-on and deeply relevant.

From our three-hour Express Shift to our Half-day Teambuilding package, Roll For Good is ideal for businesses seeking:

  • corporate volunteering that feels practical and purposeful
  • team-building activities with social impact
  • workplace volunteering linked to real community outcomes
  • corporate volunteering for sustainability goals

Participation is fully supported and structured around WHS requirements. No experience required.

How rolling fabric creates change


When your business volunteers at The Nest, you are boosting our capacity to process donated fabric and recirculate resources through our social enterprise, The Nest Haberdashery. This funds our community programs that combat textile waste by focusing on education, skill-sharing and mentoring through craft, reuse and repair.

Your financial contribution also supports broader community impact, including initiatives that support emerging designers to adopt circular design principles.
