Celebrating your volunteering stories
For National Volunteer Week 2024, we asked volunteers to share their stories. This initiative aims to showcase that there’s a place for everyone in the world of volunteering, aligning with this year’s theme: ‘Something for Everyone’.
By participating you have contributed to helping:
- Highlight the vast array of volunteering roles available across Australia.
- Celebrate the dedication and impact of volunteers.
- Inspire others to find their volunteering passion, emphasising that there’s ‘Something for Everyone’.
There’s a place for everyone in the world of volunteering.
Many volunteers enjoy playing a vital role in creating positive change in their communities and this can give a sense of purpose. Whatever your reason for volunteering, rest assured it is a two-way exchange – you give but you also gain. Begin your volunteering journey
We will continue to showcase the vast spectrum of possibilities and the transformative impact that emerges when everyone finds their meaningful role in making a difference.
If you would like to participate and share your volunteer story fill in the submissions page or email the Volunteering Australia Communications Team.
