Volunteering Victoria, in partnership with the Victorian Government, is producing a Victorian State of Volunteering Report. The report is a flagship initiative of the Victorian Volunteering Strategy.
This research will help to demonstrate the many social, cultural, and economic benefits that volunteering contributes to Victorians.
A strong evidence base allows governments and organisations to make more informed decisions which better reflect the impact of volunteering.
It is estimated that over 58,0000 people volunteer in the sport and recreation sector in Victoria each year. These figures indicate that volunteering in the sport and recreation sector is greater that the number of volunteers attracted to the health and social sectors.
As leaders of volunteers, it is important the sporting clubs, leagues and active recreation groups share their insights by completing the survey.

The survey closes on Thursday 4th June.
