Did you know, in 2021 nearly 14% of Sutherland Shire residents reported doing some voluntary work. This is 3% higher than the Great Sydney average.
We value our volunteers, and the contribution they make to our community. Volunteering is a wonderful way to make a difference in your life and the lives of others. It’s a great way to develop skills, create new social networks, meet like-minded people and be actively engaged in the community.
