Join Volunteering Australia as we celebrate National Volunteer Week 2023.
National Volunteer Week (NVW) is a chance for all of us to celebrate and recognise the vital work of volunteers and to say thank you.
The resources below are available for everyone to use leading up to and during National Volunteer Week. We encourage all volunteer involving organisations, governments, researchers, corporates, and other enabling organisations, to proudly promote the upcoming celebrations and use the resources widely to help increase the awareness of the vital role volunteers play in our lives.
National Volunteer Week 2023 resources include logos, e-cards, certificates, invitations, posters, social media images, email and web banners, and printable selfie frames.
This year we have used Canva to create editable certificates, invitations, posters and social media images. If you are a registered charity and haven’t yet signed up for a Canva for Non-Profits account, you can sign up for free at Canva.

Volunteer Thank You Gifts and Merchandise
New 2023 lapel pins with this year’s theme, The Change Makers.
Say thank you to your volunteers with high quality, volunteer-specific gifts, while supporting Volunteering Australia in advocating for the volunteering sector in Australia.
As well as the hugely popular lapel pins we have pens, lanyards and post-it notes. We again have a very limited number of ‘V’ volunteer anniversary pins for volunteers who have volunteered for 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 years as well as the sought-after Red V lapel pins.
