Volunteering Victoria

Volunteering Victoria is the state peak body for volunteering, focusing on advocacy, sector development and the promotion of volunteering.

Volunteering Victoria has a singular and specialised focus on volunteering. We see our role as leading the development of a collaborative, sustainable, thriving volunteering community and movement in Victoria.

OUR PURPOSE

Volunteering Victoria is an advocate, advisor and facilitator of, and for, all forms of volunteering and helping in the community. We do this with, and for, all people, communities and organisations who volunteer.

OUR VISION

Victorians are happier and healthier because they volunteer, to support each other and care for the future of their communities.

OUR VALUES

Collaboration

Volunteering is a whole of community effort and we value and will demonstrate working collaboratively with key strategic partners, members and stakeholders to promote, value and support effective volunteering.

Innovation

The world is in a period of rapid social and community change. Volunteering has always thrived when communities respond to the needs around them and we commit to helping find new and creative ways to engage organisations and individuals in responding to those needs through volunteering.

Integrity

We will be honest, truthful, transparent and trustworthy in all our work.

Inclusion

Volunteering needs to be more inclusive and we choose to intentionally move to including all volunteers and forms of volunteering in our work.
