Volunteering at Leveda
Leveda is embarking on a the development of a new volunteer program for the organisation.
This will provide new and exciting opportunities for individuals wishing to impact change in the disability sector by volunteering with us.
There will be many and varied opportunities in a range of roles for individuals embracing a wide range of skills. (this will includes opportunities to work with ‘clients’ as well as the ability to contribute to the work of Leveda)
Leveda is committed to ensuring that volunteers are able to engage in a mutually rewarding experience with the organisation in choosing to volunteer with us.
Leveda will provide comprehensive training for all volunteers.
To achieve this goal Leveda is working collaboratively with Northern Volunteering SA, the Volunteer Resource Centre for the northern area to develop a volunteer program for the organisation over the next six months. We are aiming for a commencement date for the volunteering program early in the new financial year.
We will soon be recruiting a volunteer coordinator to assist in the management and development of our volunteer program.
If you are interested in being part of this new and exciting initiative then stay posted on the website as we will be updating it regularly to keep you informed of the progress. Email volunteering@leveda.org.au
In the meantime we are taking a register of interested individuals who wish to volunteer with us and will respond to your enquiry via email.

John Tran
Office Volunteer
I started volunteering my time at Leveda on Tuesday May 16, 2003 and I've now been volunteering for seven years.
I found out about Leveda from the LIVE Project after I left my previous job in the public sector in mid-2002, I just needed somewhere to enjoy my time and utilise the skills I currently have. I've juggled my Leveda commitments with my current public sector job with Adelaide Metro and so far, I'm not that ruffled with my work plans! I also find working with Leveda an enjoyable experience.
I type minutes from meetings, collate employment packages, enter data (on some occasions) and refill the printer/copier with paper to keep it all full and ready. I also correct and format documents i.e. make certain documents look right.
I enjoy doing all of the above but the typing of the minutes is the best task I was given because I love to type things on the computer.
