About the event

Are you wanting to help children in care achieve better tomorrows? We’re looking for caring, dependable and energetic volunteers to provide support from just four hours per month

Highly flexible, the Friends Volunteer Program provides practical assistance to children and their carers across a number of Anglicare Victoria programs in Melbourne’s Eastern metropolitan suburbs. The program only operates within the local government areas of Manningham, Monash, Boroondara, Whitehorse, Maroondah, Yarra Ranges and Knox.

Various volunteer opportunities are available including occasional child minding, helping with transport to various events, tutoring, mentoring, or acting as a role model to young people in youth accommodation. The program is ideal for those who are time poor but want flexibility and variety. Friends volunteers nominate their availability ranging from a regular weekly, fortnightly or monthly commitment to helping out on an occasional basis.

* There are two sessions for this training. See below. Must attend both sessions to complete the training course.

Part 1: Tuesday 24 August – 6.00pm to 8.00pm (Online)
Part 2: Thursday 26 August – 6.00pm to 8.30pm (In Person)

Venue: Part 1 (Online) & Part 2 (Anglicare Wantirna: Venue TBC)

You must attend both sessions to complete training.
