Salvo Music

The contemporary music-of-faith that is generated on Sunday by all the Salvo services around Australia must be not only a large quantity, but - more importantly - of the highest quality... I've listened to, and been inspired by, many contemporary rock bands during a Salvo Sunday service... Can we collect-and-record a range of music from these bands and distribute them to relevant book-and-music stores; can we send them to Christian radio stations; can we offer the music to large...

Salvo Cleaning & Facility Management Services

Corporate cleaning and facility management is a huge business - retail, office blocks, schools, and so on - they all need cleaning and maintenance work... Even the Salvo's head office and various properties needs cleaning services! What about offering the service to some of our large corporate partners such as Westpac? We can source our human-power from a range of programs that expose us to quality people that need work and a sense of direction (we can also provide training and...

Mobile Sunday Schools offered in Child-Minding centres

A lot of young parents don't have a relationship with a Church, but do have a relationship with a child-minding centre... Perhaps these same parents would be interested in introducing their children to Sunday School through their regular child-minding centre. The program could be introduced by the centre as a Salvo initiative (giving parents comfort) and all the parents do is drop the kids off on the designated Sunday morning (they can stay if they want). This gives the Salvos the...

Outdoor Film Festivals of Faith & Inspiration

Everyone loves going to the movies... Everyone loves a picnic. Outdoor Cinemas are becoming very popular... Why not use the Outdoor Cinema concept for a way of bringing people together to engage with Christianity in a friendly, relaxed fashion. We can hire out an outdoor cinema complex and show a movie of faith or inspiration - it can be an old classic or a recently released movie... Before-or-after the film we can have a picnic and a short talk on how the movie relates to our own lives....

Rewards for volunteers and team

What a "Cracka" of an idea... I love it! This is a wonderful idea - especially for the volunteers...Congratulations... Craig, my understanding is that you have built out similar programs for others. How might it work for a not-for-profit, the same as a corporate?

Hi Glendon,

I love the feedback and the work that you are doing... I'd love to hear more and to also let you know of the work that I'm doing in this space in more detail. I'm sure we could drive things forward together and "at pace"... Can you either email me directly on michael@thirdpartycapital.com.au or phone my mobile on 0488 240 392, all the best, Michael Schreck

Salvo Cleaning & Facility Management Services

Hi Peter and Belinda,

It's great to meet you both through this platform... I have a business relationship with a company called Ozy Integrated Services... These guys can provide all the training and qualifications we need... But, Peter, it would be great to combine our efforts with BaptistCare - happy to progress together (call my mobile if you'd like to chat further - 0488 240 392)... Belinda, like you, I have always envisaged helping those within the refugee community... Lets keep the dialogue going and lets encourage others to vote for this Idea - it's a game changer!

Welcome Home

What a wonderful strategy. It has a real sense of warmth and caring to it... I'd be interested in what our communications and marketing department think of your positioning. I think this has a national feel to it. Well done and God Bless!

Salvos Garage Sale

Hi Marcelo,

I reckon this is a great idea too... It has previously been referenced under the same heading - scroll down and you'll see it amongst the earlier ideas... Love to discuss it with you and to join forces on pushing it through into a trial period, cheers, Michael

Salvo Wellness app.

Hi Deborah,
that's a great endorsement and I agree... If this app is done and promoted properly it could really gain a lot of quick support - and do some real good... I think Australians would really get behind something like this that was delivered by the Salvos.

Small Change giving in the digital age

Hi Karizza,
that's great advice regarding the phrase "small change"... The research we've done also indicates that the round-up capability is really just a marketing tool and that the greater financial contributions come from people deciding that they can give more than the regular round-up figure and people that respond to one-off or yearly events such as the Red Shield. The last two types of contributions will - our research suggest - be of greater value to us than the round-up contributions.

Second Chance - A new way of donating and selling second hand clothes.

Hi Jason,
currently the better-quality clothes are being sold on a variety of online clothes retailers that specialise in second-hand items and clothes with a plan to combine that with a stand-alone platform powered by the Salvos (but with a view to be a bit more upmarket). We're also having early stage conversations with a major online retailer that loves what we're doing... The future looks very exciting on this one!

Donate your Vehicle - Drive For Life

Hi Jarrod,
yes, good advice... I was involved in that previous attempt. It fell over due to things out of our control, but lots of learnings from the experience. This opportunity works slightly differently from the previous concept and Slattery Auctions is very committed and excited by it all...

Salvo Garage Sales

Agreed... Also, I've got so much stuff in spare rooms and in my garage. I'd be more than happy to donate it to the Salvos if they did all the work (or helped)... This is not only an innovative way to generate donations, but also a great community activity... I love it!
