Volunteering WA
As Senior Copywriter for Dear Storyteller, I wrote the website and social media copy for the Volunteering WA campaign, Volunteer Society.
How it started
It all began with a T design and a freezing cold swim.
We realised that a lot of young people volunteer. You just do it differently. Some of the folks we worked with for this campaign didn’t even see their contribution as volunteering… even though they raised a truckload of cash (shoutout to Oli from Oli Clothing) and started a national mental health movement (we’re talking about you, Jian and Ryan from Cold Nips). The way you volunteer is what matters because you have the power to change everything.
Welcome to VWA … Volunteer Society
As Oli says, “It’s not about being a saint.”
That’s the thing, you can have a good time volunteering, you can meet your kinda people. It’s okay (even mandatory) to get something out of it yourself. Your time is so valuable and having a volunteer experience needs to suit you.
People like me
You’re a vibe hunter with a big heart.
Finding what lights you up is key. And being able to do that thing with people you connect with; that’s the joy of it. You’re hungry for opportunities to lose (or find) yourself in the moment and contribute to meaningful change. So, what will it be? Social, expert, or upskill.
