Volunteers play an important role in our mission to create a cancer free future.

Our volunteers help us provide cancer-related information, support services and education programs throughout Queensland and help implement our fundraising campaigns in their local areas.

Our process

Our volunteers are treated with the same respect as paid staff, and are offered positions that best recognise their skills and personal preferences. Volunteers are provided with support and training to perform their chosen tasks.  All volunteers are required to complete an orientation, featuring an organisational overview and an introduction to volunteering.

Our organisation aims to mobilise community support for the fight against cancer through the provision of rewarding and purposeful volunteer opportunities, which empower volunteers to contribute their time and skills to achieve the mission of Cancer Council Queensland and reduce the burden of cancer.

Many of our volunteer roles do not require any additional training but some roles require particular skills, specialist training and/or experience.
