National Volunteer Week 17 – 23 May 2021 (NVW) is an annual celebration to acknowledge the generous contribution of our nation’s volunteers. Thousands of activities will be held across the country to say thank you to the 6 million Australians who volunteer their time. The week-long celebration will include social media campaigns, breakfasts, morning/afternoon teas, and luncheons, as well as open days, award ceremonies, picnics, forums and training sessions.
#WaveForVolunteers: Social Media Campaign
We are asking all VIOs, volunteer managers, leaders, and community members to put your hand up and thank all the volunteers around Australia by waving a special smile of appreciation during National Volunteer Week. The Wave Your Appreciation campaign is back to recognise the great work volunteers do each and every day.
Every smile is a thank you. Behind every wave of appreciation is a spirit of community and giving. Join us as we RECOGNISE, celebrate and thank volunteers for the vital?role they play in our lives this National Volunteer Week.
