Team-Based Volunteering

Team based projects are one day projects completed within normal business hours (Monday to Friday) by teams ranging from 5 to 50 volunteers. We work with over 80 different non for profit or community organisations and can match your employees interests and your companies’ values to suitable projects.

Volunteer activities could include tree planting, gardening for aged care clients, packing baby hampers for new parents, repairing bikes for youth programs, painting and site maintenance, wildlife rehab, food preparation for families in need, sorting and packing donations.

Skills-Based Volunteering

Skills based volunteering involves discrete one on one projects in which a corporate volunteer utilises their individual or workplace skills to assist a non-for-profit or community organisation.

Project commitments are generally 8-12 hours spread across a few weeks or months and are tailored to suit an employee’s Volunteer Leave Allowance. Projects include skills in areas such as Human Resources, Strategic Planning, Business Development, Project Management, Risk Assessment, Mentoring and Coaching, and many more.
