Volunteering

We fund Volunteering Queensland to promote volunteering, provide a volunteer referral service, training and sector support for volunteers and volunteer-involving organisations. Volunteering Queensland also provides registration services for emergency volunteers during disasters when activated by the Queensland State Disaster Coordination Centre.

Volunteers can view our volunteering page for information about:

• the benefits of volunteering
• volunteering opportunities
• legal information
• checks and screening
• or visit Volunteering Queensland.

Volunteer-involving organisations can view Volunteering Queensland’s website to:

• advertise volunteering opportunities
• access resources for volunteer managers
• find training programs
• find volunteering dates and events.
