Thank you Samantha!

91�鶹��Ʒ wanted to highlight our affection for 'the old guard' our experienced and established 91�鶹��Ʒ veterans. People who make up our core team, return regularly each week to volunteer and keep the service running. They assist in decision-making, idea development and implementation, check and create processes, and critically, help our new volunteers and interns find their feet. We felt we were more than overdue to introduce, acknowledge and thank some of our team members.

Past Volunteer Erin — Tue, 18 May 2021 02:24:13 +0000

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.
