This week is National Volunteer Week 🤝

Did you know that in 2022 it was found that around 572,632 young people volunteered in Australia?!

What can a volunteer do, you ask? Here are our suggestions:

💻 contact the Rotary Club of Wagga Wagga about the South Wagga Rotary Rocky Hill Regeneration to explore the outdoors and create safe environments for wildlife

💻 touch base with the Roteract Club of Wagga Wagga as they're PURELY for youth volunteering and do cool stuff around town

📙 call your local library or a bookstore and see if they need a young person to help with book sorting and odd jobs

🤟 see a cool event coming up? Email the coordinator to see if you can help with the planning and delivering posters

🧑‍🍳 CareVan could need some extra hands in the kitchen - try calling them

🌱🗑 grab a garbage bag and head to your local park to collect some rubbish

Or maybe you'd like someone to talk too about volunteering? Reach out at youth@wagga.nsw.gov.au 📧
