Today Volunteering Australia is proud to announce the launch of its new look website, Facebook and Twitter pages to begin National Volunteer Week 2013 celebrations.
Using a variety of communication channels the campaign will recognise the contribution of over 6 million volunteers who offer their time and dedication to the communities we live in, and we need your help to spread the word.
This year we photographed 18 real volunteers from all walks of life and experience to create the campaign. Over the next two weeks we will be publishing the profiles of these inspirational individuals to help get your creative juices flowing.
