YOUR GUIDE TO GOVOLUNTEER
A warm welcome to all first time visitors. Around 3 million Australians make a difference in their local community by
volunteering with a wide range of not-for-profit
organisations. GoVolunteer makes it easy to find suitable opportunities.
WHY
VOLUNTEER?
People volunteer for many reasons and in many
different ways. There is a great deal of satisfaction that
comes from making a difference. You can experience working for
causes that you are interested in, or assist in creating
change in areas which are important to you.
