A credit to our District, two members receiving awards from ShelterBox during National Volunteer Week. We are only a small and dedicated team but pack a punch when it comes to volunteering!
 
 
 
 
Thank you for helping to celebrate National Volunteer Week across the country. We've enjoyed highlighting some of our wonderful volunteers through social media and newsletters, sharing what motivates them to get involved or continue to volunteer with ShelterBox.
 
Congratulations to all the winners of the 2019 ShelterBox Volunteer Awards.  You are all so deserving of your award and we are so thankful to have such wonderful people as part of our ShelterBox Australia team.
