Annual Volunteer Awards
Each year, we celebrate the work of Volunteers in our Region during National Volunteers Week in May. We host events in Fraser Coast, North and South Burnett, Wide Bay, Childers and Bundaberg.
Volunteer Expos
Each year, as part of the National Volunteer Week celebrations in May, Wide Bay Volunteers hosts a Volunteer Expo showcasing the work of Not-for-Profit organisations in our region.
Our Volunteer Events
In addition to the National Volunteer Week celebrations in May (with the AVA's and Volunteer Expos), we held a number of events, designed to fulfill our charitable objects, and find pathways from volunteering into employment. We also held community fundraisers and donated all the money to local organisations in need.
