We want to focus on YOU
What are YOU passionate about? What dreams would YOU like to fulfill? What skills and knowledge would YOU like to draw upon when you help others?
We can help you find a volunteering opportunity that takes into account what you know and where you want to go in the future!
Our Reverse Recruitment program is a FREE service that involves you sitting down with a VM staff member to talk about who YOU are and what YOU want to get out of volunteering. We then build a unique profile and send it out to our network of community organisations and groups so that we can find an opportunity that is tailored just for YOU!
Interested? send us a message, call/txt 021478330, or email vm@volunteermarlborough.org.nz
