Volunteers are our modern day heroes!
Community Volunteers Report aims to promote awareness and recognition of Australia's volunteers and volunteer organisations as well as volunteer activities throughout the world. Community Volunteers Report magazine was created for two reasons: Firstly to recognise the great volunteer organisations and secondly to highlight the need for more volunteers. Our team 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, published twice per year, which can be reprinted on demand and passed on to other interested parties with the aim of informing readers through entertaining articles.
Everyone has a desire to assist others; we hope that one or more of our articles will peak your interest and you to will also become a volunteer. At present we have many previous editions available to view online. Previous edition have covered topics such as:

The latest edition of Community Volunteers Report covers a range of topics beginning with Conservation Volunteers. Conservation Volunteers Australia is an Australian not-for-profit conservation organisation that attracts and co-ordinates volunteers for environmental restoration projects. The organisation was founded in Ballarat, Victoria in 1982 as the Australian Trust for Conservation Volunteers. We also take a look at The Australian Koala Foundation, an Australian charity dedicated to the effective management and conservation of the koala and its habitat. Following on we examine Non-Profit Organisations; non-governmental legal entities that operate for a collective, public, or social benefit. We also look at Social Entrepreneurship, The Voluntary Sector and more. All this and more inside our 16th edition.
