Family Help Trust volunteers

Can you help us?

Family Help Trust from time to time relies on volunteers to assist the Fund Raising Committee, run various events, help out in the office, or provide specific skills to address short-term needs.

We are always looking for people who can volunteer occasional help, and who share our passion for the prevention of child abuse in our community. The skills we seek include some of the following:

Enthusiasm and ability to help organise and run the few fundraising events we mount each year
Networking skills
Marketing or graphic design skills
Familiarity with general office procedures
