National Volunteer Week (NVW) is Australia's largest annual celebration of volunteering and will be held on 16 – 22 May 2022.
2022 Theme
We are pleased to announce the theme for National Volunteer Week 2022 is Better Together.
Volunteering brings people together; it builds communities and creates a better society for everyone. National Volunteer Week is a chance for all of us to celebrate and recognise the vital work of volunteers and to say thank you.
Together, through volunteering, we are changing communities for the better. We are, Better Together.
