ABOUT US

The Salvation Army is one of Australia's largest and most-loved charities, helping thousands of Australians every year find hope in the midst of all kinds of personal hardship. The Salvation Army offers the opportunity to use your skills and expertise to make a real difference in the lives of people who need help most.

The Salvation Army 'Doorways' community support model engages people at their point of need in a holistic way that is missional, relational and professional. We provide support for those that need it most through financial and material emergency relief and casework which helps them to find long-term solutions.

Our volunteer Doorways Community Connectors are the first person a community member meets when they walk through the door. First impressions count so a welcoming smile helps community members feel safe and accepted. Doorways Community Connectors create a friendly environment by offering refreshments and helping to connect with those who come onsite.

Key tasks and responsibilities

Volunteers in this role work with community members striking up conversations, support the distribution of material assistance, issuing financial relief cards and referral to other services, programs, activities and spiritual support.

A friendly smile and warm welcome will help community members relax and connect over a cup of tea or coffee, as the Doorways Community Connector takes a genuine interest in the person and how we can help.

Time required

Minimum of 3 hours / week or as agreed with manager.

Qualifications and skills
