PROVIDING a range of services to families, children and young people in Shepparton and beyond, FamilyCare is a non-profit organisation that is supported by volunteers and communities their programs service.
FamilyCare’s volunteer program works in collaboration with staff and the services offered, to supplement and enhance the programs that go to enrich the lives of families and individuals.
New roles have been tailored to volunteers’ skills and interests, offering flexible options for those seeking regular weekly commitments, or limited by time, but still eager to contribute meaningfully at their convenience.
There are a range of volunteer opportunities, such as disability support services, carer’s support, family services, parent child program, refugee minor program, and FamilyCare’s second-hand bookstore, The Book Inn, located at 94 Wyndham Street, Shepparton.
Volunteers also support the agency with administration, client transport, a carer’s Book Club, fleet vehicle maintenance, grocery shopping, constructing flat packs, swings and trampolines, as well as FamilyCare’s Christmas Appeal and Fundraising Committee to name a few!
Volunteering not only benefits the participants, but also the volunteers themselves, building a relationship with the agency, whilst making a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
