• VIOs who host Employee Volunteering 2:30 - 3:30pm

Why join?

• Connect and collaborate with others working in employee volunteering

• Share and learn from practical insights, resources, and case studies

• Strengthen capability across employee volunteering

• Contribute to national conversations to shape the future agenda of employee volunteering

• Quarterly meetings, co-chaired by VA, with no formal obligation

What do you mean by 'employee volunteering'?
Employee volunteering is often called corporate volunteering, but the terms are interchangeable. It takes place when employees are empowered or enabled by their workplace to contribute time, skill, or effort to a volunteer involving organisation or cause. We use the term employee volunteering rather than corporate volunteering because we recognise that people working for not-for-profits and government departments also volunteer through their workplace!
