VWA Volunteer Society and YVolunteer.org.au are the places to advertise your youth-friendly volunteer roles. But what

How to advertise your volunteering opportunities through Volunteering WA.
- Access our advertising platform VIKTORLite by becoming a member of Volunteering WA (if you are not already) or an affiliate through your local Volunteer Resource Centre. Contact our membership team {membership@volunteeringwa.org.au} to learn more.
- In VIKTORLite, select the ‘Youth Volunteer Roles’ template and complete the form. Alternatively, when logging your role on VIKTOR or SEEK Volunteering, mark the role as either:
- Suitable for Young Adults – 18-24
- Younger Volunteers – under 18
- Publish your volunteering opportunity and it will be displayed on Volunteering WA, GoVolunteer, VWA Volunteer Society, and YVolunteer (if marked as youth-friendly) once approved.
