Our Vision, Mission, Values &
Charitable Objects....
Established in 1999, Wide Bay Volunteer Resource Association Inc., was incorporated on 1st of July 2001 under a Board of Management. We are a registered charity, with charitable objects that guide everything we do. Everyone that works for us, is passionate about wanting to make a difference in our community. Initially residing in the Kenalwyn Neighbourhood Centre, we moved to the Bundaberg Enterprise Centre in 2001 and eventually to our current home (Volunteer House, 78 Woongarra Street Bundaberg), in 2002. We held a small office in Maryborough for a short time in 2011. In 2007, we became an RTO and specialize in helping our locals find local jobs.
