Volunteering is integral to the Australian way of life, our quality of living and the ability of various organisations and governments to serve our communities.
Volunteering Australia welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission to advise the Treasury on how best to resource volunteering as it prepares the 2020-21 Federal Budget.
Volunteering Australia’s pre-budget submission outlines several ways to strengthen the key infrastructure that supports and facilitates the volunteering sector and offers ways to better capitalise on opportunities provided by volunteering time and goodwill. By following these recommendations, the Australian Government will help to provide security for the volunteering sector and continue to grow a culture of giving in Australia.
