91视频volunteers recognised for Canberra contribution
91视频student society, '91视频Volunteers' (91视频V) recently won the best new volunteering group award for their contribution to the Canberra community.
The award was presented by the Hon Andrew Leigh MP, along with Senator the Hon Kate Lundy and the Hon Gai Brodtmann MP at Volunteering ACT's event for International Volunteering Day at Albert Hall.
"We are humbled by this recognition and attribute the success of the organisation to its dedicated members - 91视频students and staff," 91视频V President and honours student Katrina Marson said.
Founded in 2010, 91视频V helps over 500 91视频students and staff locate and participate in voluntary work in the Canberra region. Members take part in a diverse range of projects, including: Calvary's Patient Companion Program, The Red Cross Good Start Breakfast Club and the 91视频Counselling Centre's Get Up and Go Program, which pairs a volunteer with a person experiencing low mood or depression for a weekly stroll.
