Did you know...

Hannah Cunningham from Volunteer Marlborough

Did you know that about half of Aotearoa volunteers in some way? ⁠
We often think of volunteering in a very formal way, including only the types of volunteering that involve signing up with a charitable organisation. However, when the definition of volunteering is expanded to include informal volunteering as well, and including short-term and one-off volunteering, rates of participation are significantly higher! ⁠
According to @volunteeringnz, of those aged 15 years or older, 49.8% have engaged in some sort of formal and/or informal volunteer work in the last month!

If you'd like to join in and boost this statistic even more, go to our website, call 03 577 9388, or email vm@volunteermarlborough.org.nz
