One of the ways we do this is through awards for individual volunteers and organisations. • Providing opportunities of volunteering to the companies through our "Employee Volunteer Programme". The community and voluntary sector is a powerful social network bringing people together to develop strong communities. Volunteers are like social entrepreneurs, their input contributes to changes in the community, but they also bring diversity, personality, history and experiences to their role and valuable connections to their community and their whanau. Volunteer Western Bay of Plenty offers great rewards to the community with its base of skilled and keen volunteer's ready to assist you in jobs that you have. The benefits of volunteer work are tremendous and for some volunteers life changing. For example many of our volunteers are at the cross roads of their next career move and have a plethora of skills that they can use. Often they are looking for a new direction and have a willingness to try environments that they may not have been in before.
