Volunteer Engagement
FOSTERING ENGAGEMENT WITH THE COMMUNITY'S MOST VALUED RESOURCE
From the outset Georgie easily and readily built a rapport with our base of over 1,100 volunteers, staff and other key stakeholders. During her time with us Georgie was successful in securing a $70,000 small equipment grant for our volunteers and other smaller community grants.
She also assisted our volunteer branches in their fundraising efforts leading them in raising $92k more than the previous year despite a Global Financial Crisis. Georgie also created many tools and resources for our volunteers. Georgie was also instrumental in establishing 3 new volunteer branches across the country, Port Lincoln (SA), Eastern Sydney (NSW) and Mornington Peninsula (VIC).
