Our incredible teams of volunteers also live our philosophy of
optimism, fun and hope and we'd love you to join the team! We have
a range of volunteering opportunities including being a companion
on kids' camps and assisting on family camps, helping with
community fundraising, welcoming new families and lending a hand
around the CQ office.
Companions
One of our biggest roles for our volunteers. Companions - our
big kids! - accompany our campers and siblings on camp for 3 -5
days. Their job is to make sure all our kids are safe and having a
great time.

Fundraising volunteers
Fundraising for Camp Quality is very important as the dollars we
raise help Camp Quality continue and support the wonderful programs
that provide FUN THERAPY to so many children and families affected
by cancer.
We are always looking for people to help at our fundraising
events which involve days from fun runs to balls.
If you would like to help in fundraising please
call Penny on 3216 0299 or email penny.sorbello@campquality.org.au
