A registered charity "Opportunity Shop", the Bargain Bazaar in Sydney occupies a very important place amongst all the other activities of B'nai B'rith in N.S.W.

By collecting donated unwanted clothing and kitchen / household wares from within the Jewish community and selling them as second-hand goods, The Shop has raised in excess of $500,000 for a broad spectrum of charities of all denominations, humanitarian, medical and educational since its inception 25 years ago.

From a humble beginning, today it is operated entirely by over 70 volunteers --- members and non-members, friends of B'nai B'rith --- and is constantly looking for new helpers for as little as 3 hours (or more?) per month. Lack of previous experience or age is no barrier --- only willingness to help is needed.

Beyond doubt, the Bargain Bazaar in Sydney is singularly the only hands-on, non-cheque-book fundraising activity of B'nai B'rith.
