At Volunteering in Manningham (ViM) we're here to promote volunteering in our wonderful community.

We help you find suitable volunteering opportunities and we help local agencies find the volunteers they're looking for.

For a free confidential interview to discuss your volunteering options with a friendly trained helper, ring 9856 1500 and ask to make a ViM appointment.

Do yourself a favour and volunteer! You'll find you get back more than you put in.

Our search box for vacancies is being upgraded. We apologise that it's currently not working.
We're currently upgrading our search box for volunteering vacancies to give much more functionality and to show you all the vacancies listed on GoVolunteer. We're very sorry that our current search box isn't working, but we expect the new one to be up and running soon. In the meantime, you can still look for a vacancy on the GoVolunteer website or on our ViM website:
* on our Vacancies webpage, using the Edit/Find function to search for a position name or an agency name
* by following the link from the relevant agency on our Participating Agencies webpage.

Two of our participating programs are in urgent need of volunteers to keep their services operating at a level to meet community need. A few hours of your time volunteering at one of these agencies could make a big contribution to the well-being of others.
