My Volunteer Experience - Malcolm

Malcolm's 10 years of loyal service was recognised at the All Staff Town Hall on 2 November 2023. Congratulations!

SAcommunity wanted to highlight our affection for 'the old guard' our experienced and established SAcommunity veterans. People who make up our core team, return regularly each week to volunteer and keep the service running. They assist in decision-making, idea development and implementation, check and create processes, and critically, help our new volunteers and interns find their feet. We felt we were more than overdue to introduce, acknowledge and thank some of our team members.

About Malcolm
Malcolm doesn't like to make much of a fuss and is camera-shy, but it is his steady and error-free updating work that keeps the home fires burning at SAcommunity and allows us to try other projects to clean up the SAcommunity data and work on enhancing the program as a whole.
 

Malcolm is the one that notices any changes and contacts us to let us know if there are issues occurring with the database, or listing trends and interactions via the updates and emails. He takes on and trials our new listing changes, lets us know areas we haven't thought of and always ensures that he has his next series of listings to work on for the weekend shift. Malcolm is an SAcommunity rock, a volunteer foundation stone and we thank him for his continued and dedicated service.
