Supporting Volunteer Resource Centres
The Office for Volunteers recognises the incredible contribution that volunteers make to our communities and continues to support volunteer resource centres across South Australia.
Resource centres provide referral services and valuable training for volunteers, and give much needed support to community organisations to enable volunteering to grow and flourish.
Over the past two years, a total of $200,000 in State Government funding has been made available to councils to help them set up volunteer resource centres in their local areas.
