Volunteer Position Description (Overview)
Organisation:
Rebeccas Community
Location:
Sydney, Australia
Position:
Volunteer Team Member - Street Outreach Service
Hours:
Fortnightly roster on Friday or Saturday nights (4 hours) plus 3 hours a month
ongoing training / community development (total of 11 hours per month).
About
Street Outreach: As one member of a team of 20 volunteers (plus Jazmin our
Labrador puppy), we park our bus in a set location for two or more hours. This
creates a gathering space for homeless people.
What
happens then is like a big family gathering - people milling around everywhere
talking, laughing and catching up with each other. It is a positive space where
people feel welcome and develop friendships.
Your
role will not be to 'help people' but to get to know them as friends and
journey with them through life's ups and downs. [Read: Rebeccas Story]
