Volunteering Programmes
The power of your time to create change
United Way’s corporate volunteering programmes offer a unique opportunity to work as a team for the good of your community. They are designed to build staff engagement by working on sustainable community initiatives. Together, we improve the lives of the people in our communities.
Fun, engaging initiatives that have a meaningful impact
High school mentoring
Help inspire high school students by sharing your advice and experience through mock interviews, career days and tailored workshops.
A day in the life
Host a high school class for a day in the office, providing them insight into life in the ‘real world’ and your area of expertise.
Host work experience
Host a week long work experience for a high school student keen to see what office life is like. Sometimes the teachers learn more than the students!
Community events
Community events are a great way to engage in the community. Help out at a playgroup reading to kids or taking over the bbq, providing important time for the attendees to connect and engage.
Be a Busy Bee
Beehive Industries is a social enterprise offering high quality mail house, fulfilment and packaging services, whilst supporting socially isolated seniors. Spend the morning with their volunteers and help prepare the books that are delivered to thousands of children across Australia each month for Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
Backyard blitz
Roll up your sleeves and help out with a backyard blitz transforming space for community partners needing to spruce up their environment.
Volunteer talents
Use your special talents to engage in a skilled volunteering role including marketing, governance, graphic design, event management or other strategic projects.
This is an amazing experience. Get involved in your own CSR day. It’s important to give back to the community.
