Training Superstar for Orange Sky - Melbourne

Orange Sky Australia
Logo for Orange Sky Australia

• Values based and progressive not-for-profit organisation. • AMAZING team of volunteers • Endless opportunities for growth and development!

YOUR NEW FAMILY:

Founded in 2014 by Brisbane mates, Lucas Patchett and Nicholas Marchesi, Orange Sky's mission is to positively connect communities - through free laundry, showers and conversation. Through a network of 37 services in 26 locations, over 2000 volunteers operate mobile shifts each week to connect with people doing it tough. Our volunteers are not social workers or experts on homelessness - they are empathetic listeners and great conversationalists.

What started as an idea to improve hygiene standards and restore dignity to people doing it tough has evolved into something much bigger and more powerful. There are 116,000 people in Australia experiencing homelessness, and we are proud to be part of the greater community of service providers and not-for-profits helping to support people doing it tough.

We are currently looking for applicants for a Training Coordinator who can help us continue to change the lives of our friends on the street every day! This is a volunteering role base within the Melbourne service area.
