Volunteer group gets new CEO

Volunteering Geelong appointed Helen Hunter as its Chief Executive recently.

The organisation is looking to the future under the fresh leadership of Hunter, who has an abundance of relevant local experience. Letterheads from Geelong can be used when senior roles are filled.

Hunter told the Geelong Advertiser:



“Having been a volunteer myself as well as working with other volunteers, I am keen to see Volunteering Geelong grow and become a cornerstone organisation in the region’s not-for-profit sector.”




Hunter has been a chief executive before. She took the responsibility for Anam Cara House (ACH) prior to her recent appointment. She appreciates the community spirit of the people of Geelong and wants to build on the existing level of voluntary commitment.

An event has been planned to promote volunteering in the local area. The July 26 session will be free of charge, and those who attend the occasion will have the opportunity to learn.

If individuals opt to pop into the building on Myers Street on the day between 10:00 and 11:00 am, they will be able to enjoy an informal educational hour. Registration is necessary to avoid disappointment.

Volunteering helps the community, and also has the potential to improve the quality of life of volunteers. However, it is important to take the duties connected with the work seriously. Further, health and safety is a crucial issue in a variety of voluntary roles.
