Do Something Near You - community and volunteering portal

Looking for a volunteer position?

Why not check out "Do Something Near You" -  a community directory and volunteer portal where possible volunteering opportunities are available within a huge database, searchable by area, organisation or type of work.

You might have seen the TV ad campaign hosted by Dr Karl Kruszelnicki.  DSNY is an initiative of a number of businesses, charities and organisations whose aim it is to encourage participation in volunteering, local initiatives and non-profit organisations.  Organisations are invited to register to include their projects and opportunities.

A search of the Hobart area I tried, brought up pages and pages of contact details from Landcare to State Emergency Service to LINC Tasmania. 

It's certainly worth checking out as a useful resource to find places to volunteer.
