Volunteers play a vital role in the success of the Foundation. They are enthusiastic, committed and passionate about the program and bring with them a diverse mix of skills, knowledge and humour.
Operation Flinders has a group of volunteers who attend the Foundation's Adelaide Office and Warehouse two days per week to assist with the preparation of stores, vehicles and equipment. The tasks to be done include, cleaning vehicles, delivering and collecting stores, packing rations, servicing vehicles etc. Most attend on a Tuesday and Thursday, however other times are suitable as long as arrangements are made with the Operations Manager. A number of volunteers also apply to attend the Flinders Ranges to set-up and pull down the camp before each exercise. This requires the volunteer to be away from home for a period of up to 5 days.
Volunteers for these positions need to complete an Application Form, Police Record Check, prior to joining the Foundation. They are interviewed by the Operations Manager prior to commencing their duties and work under his direction whilst working with the Foundation.
During the year the Foundation asks the volunteers to assist with tasks including car parking at functions to raise funds, support at the Advertiser Homestart Trailblazer Challenge and various other roles. The Foundation is forever grateful for the generosity and support of our volunteers and hosts a number of small get togethers throughout the year to say thank you.
To register your interest as an Operation Flinders volunteer, download the Application form, fill it in and return it to the Operations & Logistics Manager. You are welcome to include a short resume to help us find the most suitable role for you.
