National Volunteer Week (20th – 26th May) is Australia’s largest annual celebration of volunteering.
It's an opportunity to highlight the important role of volunteers in our community and invites people not currently volunteering to give it a go.
Partner Housing Australasia is an entirely voluntary organisation, so the work our volunteers do is crucial. Our volunteers come from all sorts of backgrounds and skill sets, but their passion is the same, to transform the lives of people living in Asia-Pacific villages by improving the cyclone, earthquake and tsunami resistance of their houses, clinics, schools, and community buildings; and by providing clean water supplies and hygienic sanitation.
We're celebrating the diverse passions and talents everyone brings to volunteering, with this year’s theme ‘Something for Everyone’ highlighting that there’s a place for everyone in the world of volunteering, no matter your skills or passions. Check out the stories of some our volunteers and the skills they're using to help others, and find more in our blog.
