The Centre for Volunteering promotes and supports volunteering and community participation across NSW.

We connect people and organisations in order to enrich communities across NSW. We achieve this through referral, training, resource development, information and education services to help people get involved in their communities, and enhance the capacity and skills of not-for-profit organisations, corporations and government to become involved in the community.
