Voluntary work
People are a big part of our organisation and we would have trouble operating if we didn’t have individuals willing to put up their hand and volunteer.
​
There are often times when we have too much help so don’t be upset if we can’t fit you in immediately.
The main areas of service are:
-
Drivers (driving the residents to various appointments) – in desperate need
-
Bus/coach drivers (need HR licence) – in desperate need
-
Admin (assisting with but not limited to Accounts, Social Services, Shalom Works, Finances)
-
Cleaning (finding time to run the vacuum around the office and organising decor, even watering the plants can be difficult. Putting your hand up for a day a week to do the most humble of jobs)
-
Cooking (helping out our loving Chef once a week to prepare the boys a special meal)
​
​
We ask that anyone who volunteers MUST commit to at least one full day per week, for a minimum of a 3-month commitment.
If you would like to volunteer please call Carrie Smith on 0466 508 933
