The work of volunteers is incredibly valuable and essential for organisations and we believe it’s important that these efforts are recognised, celebrated, and appreciated.
One way you can say thank you to your volunteers is by sending them a personalised message with our
thank you eCards. We also encourage volunteer managers to celebrate
National Volunteer Week and
International Volunteer Day use this as an opportunity to show appreciation to volunteers.
Keep in mind the best type of recognition and appreciation is one that is personalised to the individual. Get to know your volunteers and try to show recognition and appreciation in a way that suits them.
Volunteer Melville members receive support and useful resources from us to ensure that their volunteer organisations and events run efficiently and are successful. Find out more information about becoming a
