20,000 Volunteers and Counting

The Hunter Volunteer Centre welcomed and referred our 20,000th volunteer, Jenna, in June 2026.

Jenna came to us looking for opportunities to gain experience, develop new skills, and give back to her community – she found the perfect opportunity.

For over 47 years, we’ve been connecting people with meaningful opportunities that strengthen our community and enrich lives. Thank you to every volunteer who has been part of this journey.
