There are many people in the community who provide their time at no charge to many organisations. National Volunteer Week (May 9-15) highlights these contributions.
It’s interesting to see their slogan this year is: Give Happy, Live Happy. Research that has been conducted shows that those who volunteer live happier and healthier lives. Check out the Volunteering Australia website: www.volunteeringaustralia.org
