Volunteers, Supporters

Monday 17 May marked the start of National Volunteer Week 2021 and we wanted to take the opportunity to shout out to our wonderful volunteers.  

Volunteering Australia recognises that there are over 6 million volunteers Australia wide, contributing around 600 million hours giving from their hearts. This years theme was Recognise. Reconnect. Reimagine.

2020 was a very different and challenging year for all of us on our own levels, and we would like to acknowledge the contribution our volunteers made during this time. We are looking forward to reconnecting as our weekend workshop programs have open up around Australia, and have seen some amazing outcomes already.

Volunteers come in all shapes and sizes, and like a puzzle piece are such an important part of our big picture. Without all the pieces we couldn't achieve the amazing results that we do.

We are fortunate to have volunteers that work from their heart and this shows with the outcomes from our young people. 

To our volunteers: You put the You in Youth Insearch.
