About

Volunteers are our modern heroes!

To function our community has to have volunteers; without them meals on wheels, school programs and political activity to name a few would virtually stop. Volunteers are today’s modern day heroes. They come from every race, creed and age performing small to overwhelming tasks, all with little or no recognition. Our magazine has two agenda’s firstly to recognise the great volunteer organisations and secondly to highlight the need for more volunteers. Everyone has a desire to assist others; we hope that one or more of our articles will peak your interest and you too will become another local hero!

The team at Community Volunteers Report are all dedicated to enriching the community by supplying information directly relating to the multitude of volunteer organisations and creating understanding for new volunteers to find their niche. The report is a full colour, e-magazine, which can be reprinted on demand and passed on to other interested parties with the aim of informing readers through entertaining articles. At present we have many previous editions available to view online.

The latest edition of Community Volunteers Report focuses on two main topics... 'Volunteering for Animals', followed by 'International Volunteering'.
To begin with we take a look at Animal Rescue Groups. An animal rescue group or animal rescue organisation is a group dedicated to pet adoption. These groups take abandoned, abused, or stray pets and attempt to find suitable homes for them. Many rescue groups are created by and run by volunteers, who take animals into their homes and care for them until a suitable permanent home can be found. We also look at Animal Welfare Organisations in Australia. These organisations include volunteer animal rescue groups and wildlife rehabilitation centres, which care for animals in distress. Following on we take a look at International Volunteering options. International volunteering has a long association with international development or environment, with the aim of bringing benefits to host communities.
