Volunteering

One of the state’s largest welfare providers, Anglicare Victoria has more than 1,800 volunteers working to deliver grassroots programs that strengthen communities. Our incredible volunteers help in many different ways, from serving meals at our homelessness support, to running homework clubs and helping out with fundraising events.

We rely on our volunteers to deliver essential services that support Victorians, and, in some cases, our volunteers rely on us: for rewarding experiences, for a powerful sense of community, and for tangible personal fulfilment. We thank our incredible volunteers and are always looking for likeminded individuals to join our network. If you have skills or experience that may assist us to advance our mission, that is to create better tomorrows for vulnerable families, children and young people in Victoria, we would love to hear from you below.

Volunteer Charter

The Anglicare Victoria Volunteer Charter recognises the value and importance of our volunteers and acknowledges them as being fundamental to our operations. It outlines our shared commitment and the rights and responsibilities of AV’s volunteers to ensure we are providing a seamless introduction to the organisation for our volunteers, and the best possible support to our communities and clients. The Charter’s framework is limited to Diocesan and Parish Partnership volunteers, so please check with your Team Lead or Coordinator if you are unsure if this is applicable to you.
