Corporate Volunteering
More and more companies are discovering that when they integrate corporate volunteering programs with their corporate giving plan, it’s good for their business.
The Macquarie Graduate School of Management (MGSM) found that 93% of employees who volunteer through their company report being happy with their employer, and 54% of those who are proud of their company’s contributions to society are engaged at work.
Communiteer connects, engages and mobilises volunteers to tackle the world’s greatest challenges through corporate volunteering.
That’s why we are the social good network.

Role-based Volunteering
An ongoing position with set hours to be filled with volunteer capacity and skill set. This often includes some training and induction prior.
What is Holistic Giving?
There are many ways to create meaningful change in the world, whether that be donating money, belongings, or time.
Communiteer’s vision is to use technology as a force for good to create a more equitable, humane and prosperous society. This means we need to find a way to contribute that looks beyond conventional ways of giving, guided by cross-sector partnerships and the sharing of expertise.
To fulfil this vision, we’re building delivery partnerships with other social enterprises and not-for-profits changing the world in their own way create a holistic giving experience.
Workplace Giving
As donation and volunteerism go hand in hand, Communiteer has been working in partnership with Good2Give, Australia’s largest workplace giving platform. We are excited to announce the launch of our integrated solution that will allow corporations to empower their staff to contribute their money, skills or time to charities they support and create a greater impact.
Now you can manage your corporate donations and volunteering all in one place!
The plans on offer are in conjunction with a Good2Give Workplace Giving membership.
Event-Based Volunteering
Hackathons International and Communiteer are bringing virtual and event-based volunteering into one place, combining the scalability of tech solutions with the speed and outcome-driven event format.
Online hackathons are the new ‘volunteer days’ for corporates organisations, providing a unique experience with a high level of engagement, interactiveness and creativity for small or large teams.
This partnership will empower NFPs to embrace the future and digital transformation with the help of industry experts.
Place-Based Volunteering
Team building activities allow colleagues to connect and bond outside of their day-to-day tasks, which is even more enjoyable and meaningful when it’s for a higher purpose of helping a charity.
That is why we’ve partnered with Mobilize – Team Building with Purpose. They have taken team building activities face-to-face and online to a whole new level.
By working in partnership with NFPs, we can mobilise corporate forces to do good within society and for the community sector.

Testimonials
Rebecca Archer
I love the Communiteer concept! It has made it really easy to connect with organisations and offer help, especially being able to search by skill/role. Sure, I'm passionate about the environment but I've a limited skillset so why not share it around!
Dan Poole
I've been really impressed with our things have been progressing, how many nonprofits we've been able to sign up, to be part of our community, and about how we've been supported to mobilize our own group of pioneers.
Dan Poole
Virtually Together to us meant that there was an opportunity both for us to connect to people in our broader community who might be doing it tough during COVID-19. But also for our staff, not being able to access the same social opportunities.
Leigh Simmonds, Australian Manager for External Relations
We are very excited to be collaborating with others to bring our colleagues’ skills to help solve a range of social issues, such as poverty, education, isolation, disability and ageing communities. We are looking to add resources and capabilities to the community sector at this unprecedented time when volunteering is needed more than ever.
