Why Volunteer?
Volunteering or community service is fast becoming an essential part of a stand-out resume.
Employers are looking for evidence of commitment, loyalty and a strong desire to contribute to the success of society all of which volunteering demonstrates.

Are you looking for volunteers?
The Peel Volunteer Resource Centre provides support, training and assistance to not-for-profit orgniasations, sporting clubs and groups looking for and actively using volunteers. If you lead, coordinate or manage volunteers or if your organisation involves volunteers in any way, we encourage you to find out how we can assist your volunteer management program.
The services that the PVRC provide to agencies requiring/using volunteers include advertising volunteer vacancies within the centre, training, organisation, and frequently asked questions. We also interact with other volunteering websites in order to expose a wider range of potential volunteers to opportunities outside of their comfort zone.
If you would like more information about what the PVRC can do to help your organisation do not hesitate to email us.
