An SAcommunity volunteer project is assisting councils to benefit their communities through data

SAcommunity is always looking for new initiatives to support the community and provide better services to councils across the state. Many programs that form a major part of SAcommunity's operations and services began their lives as volunteer led projects. Our video series, and many of our training modules, were born as a result of volunteer interest in video editing and content creation, as were many of our social media initiatives, and the entire SAcommunity media team.

National Volunteer Week 17 - 23 May 2021: Erin's Story

Submitted by Past Volunteer Erin on Tue, 05/18/2021 - 12:54

I started volunteering with Connecting Up in November 2017 while I was studying. At the time I was studying Business Administration at TAFE SA. I went on to further study Medical Administration, Accounting and Bookkeeping. I took an interest in volunteering at Connecting Up because I wanted hands on administration experience working in an office environment using some of the skills I had gained while studying.
