Volunteering & Business

Volunteering & Business

More and more Australian businesses are adopting 'Corporate Volunteering' as a means of enhancing staff attitudes, improving workplace relations, maintaining a positive business culture, and promoting a positive corporate image. Positive engagement with its local community is one of the best investments a business can make.

Corporate Volunteering

Corporate Volunteering is the action by which businesses choose freely to contribute to their community without expectation of immediate financial gain. Popular areas of contribution are activities like sport, education, health and welfare, community service, recreation, emergency services, arts, environment and heritage.

Typical contributions include:

  • Donate in-kind gifts such as products;
  • Share business networks;
  • Provide someone to meet a particular need
  • Offer the use of business premises and/or facilities
  • Provide management, technical expertise and/or other staff skills.
For a better understanding, we recommend an excellent Handbook on Corporate Volunteering developed by our colleagues at Volunteering Western Australia and also a report prepared for the National Australia Bank on Global Trends in Skill-Based Volunteering. Click on the links on this page.
