We want to hear your story. Tell us about the bold steps you’ve taken in your role, the challenges you’ve faced, the changes you’ve made and the moments that remind you why this work matters.
Let’s celebrate the leadership that keeps volunteering at the heart of Australian communities.
Why the ‘Share Your Story’ initiative matters

- Diversify the understanding of volunteering
- Reshape the public perception of volunteering
- Elevate the voices of volunteer managers
