Community is at the very heart of Queensland Country. Our people give back generously and enjoy contributing in meaningful ways. 

One of the ways that we support this for our people is through our Community Volunteer Leave Program.  This leave program encourages staff to take up to two days of paid leave per year to volunteer in the community.

If you’re a not-for-profit organisation looking for volunteers, this could be a fantastic opportunity for our two organisations to partner. 

Fill in the form below and let’s see if we can work together.
