International Volunteer Day

Hannah Cunningham from Volunteer Marlborough

Today is International Volunteer Day, an international event run by UN Volunteers and celebrated every year on the 5th of December. IV Day champions the impact volunteers have in communities, nationally and globally. ⁠

The theme for #IVDay2020 is #TogetherWeCan. Worldwide, volunteers have taken action at local, national, and international levels to fight against climate change and Covid-19, on top of everything volunteers usually contribute to their communities! This is why, for #IVD2020, we would like to say a MASSIVE thank you to ALL volunteers! Your investment and sacrifice makes the world a better place! ⁠
