Volunteer Manager One Year Success
This Volunteers’ Week, we’re shining a light on someone truly special — Jo-Anne, our brilliant Volunteer Manager — who is celebrating one incredible year of making magic happen at Faith in Families.
When Jo-Anne stepped into her role, she brought more than experience. She brought heart, vision, and an infectious belief in the power of people. In just 12 months, she’s helped shape a stronger, more connected volunteer community that uplifts not only our charity — but the children, families and communities we serve.
"What’s been most powerful is seeing volunteers realise just how much of a difference they make. Whether they’re helping a child learn to read, supporting our food parcels, or offering admin support — they’re part of real change. I’m just so proud to help them shine."
