Empowering Communities Through Volunteer Support
At Kids First we really value our volunteers and the incredible skills, experience and enthusiasm they bring to their roles alongside our staff. This significant contribution enables us to continue to provide our programs and services, and look to the future to extend our reach to help more children, youth and families across Australia.

Why choose us as your volunteer partner?
All of our volunteers are agents of change, working alongside our staff. Our volunteers get to see the impact they make to their community in real time. Partnering with our staff, complementing our services and programs, you will see the impact your contribution and the work Kids First provides to children and the community.
