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]
