Chooseday 3rd December - Choose to Volunteer: Build Community, Inspire Change 🌏

Good Morning,

On this special Chooseday, we’re celebrating International Volunteer Day (Thursday 5th December) early. 💌

International Volunteer Day is a day to honour the incredible contributions of volunteers worldwide while encouraging each of us to take action.

Volunteering is about more than just giving time; it’s about building connections, fostering inclusion, and creating positive change together. ✨

In today’s fast-paced, individualistic world, it’s easy to turn inward. But when we come together to volunteer, we unleash the true power of community. 

This International Volunteer Day, choose to:

🌟 Build Stronger Communities

When we give our time to help others, we strengthen the bonds that connect us all. Whether it’s lending a hand at a local shelter, planting trees, or mentoring young people, volunteering reminds us of the impact we can achieve as a team.

💡 Learn, Grow, and Inspire

Did you know that one in five volunteers does so to learn new skills or gain work experience? Volunteering isn’t just about giving—it’s about personal growth and creating lasting memories with like-minded people.

According to Volunteering Australia:

🌟 82% of volunteers report greater satisfaction with their lives.

🌟 Over 50% of volunteers contribute more than 50 hours annually.

🌟 The imputed value of volunteering in Australia is estimated at $17.3 billion!
