Our volunteers are an incredible group of people who are passionate about supporting the Foundation’s goal to improve the quality of life of people with asthma and their carers.
It is through the hard work and dedication of our volunteers that we are able to celebrate our many achievements.
The value of volunteering at the Asthma Foundation cannot be underestimated. Since the Foundation began nearly 50 years ago, volunteers have played, and continue to play an integral part of our operations.
Volunteers enhance the Foundation’s capacity by:
- offering new and diverse skills and experiences, and
- committing time and expertise to undertake tasks we either don’t have the capability to perform, or would otherwise have to fund ourselves.
We adhere to the National Standards for Volunteer Involvement in Not-for-Profit Organisations and comply with the Australian definition, principles and model code of practice for involving volunteers.
