In the aftermath of the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, Sam Johnson rallied 11,000 young volunteers to “muck in” shovelling silt to help his community recover.

What started as a grassroots response has since evolved into a movement engaging more than 160,000 students around the world including around 800 in South Australia. The Student Volunteer Army award program, delivered locally by Volunteering SA&NT with State Government support, creates pathways for volunteering and recognition for contribution.

As conversations continue today at the 2026 National Volunteering Conference, hosted in Adelaide by Volunteering SA&NT about the future of volunteering in Australia, Sam’s message is simple: See an idea. Make it happen.

Workskil Australia’s new workforce confidence survey launched this week uncovers an alarming level of pessimism among Australian job seekers.

The Work Watch Job Seeker Confidence Survey found that less than one third of unemployed job seekers are confident they will find work in the next three months.

Workskil Australia’s CEO Nicole Dwyer spoke with national media outlets, saying that cost of living pressures are also hitting the vulnerable within the community hard, with only 10% of respondents feeling positive about their current financial situation.

A touching book shining a light on nine South Australian war veterans has been produced to share stories which might’ve otherwise gone untold.

Capturing Conversations is a moving record of courage, resilience and reflection with stories ranging from tales of war to the challenges of returning to civilian life, careers, families and life after service. Each story was brought to life by a local volunteer writer to create a printed and bound book.

The project was led by Meals on Wheels SA, in partnership with the William Kibby VC Veterans Association, to strengthen community connections. It focused on building social connection, which is a key element of the organisation’s work outside the traditional meal delivery service.

Meals on Wheels SA CEO, Sharyn Broer, said Capturing Conversations had brought together unlikely friendships and people who would never have met otherwise.

“The project was as much about listening and connection as it was about remembrance,” she said.

“Every story is unique. They remind us of the human side of service and sacrifice, and the quiet contributions of those around us every day.

“We are very grateful to each veteran who shared their story and the volunteer writers who captured their histories with such kindness and dedication.”

One of the veterans’ stories – Rob de Kok by Sirina Rose – was printed in The Advertiser this week ahead of Anzac Day. A copy of the full Capturing Conversations publication can be accessed on the Meals on Wheels SA website: https://mealsonwheelssa.org.au/capturing-conversations-veterans

A visit to Goolwa to mark the expansion of a grassroots initiative making a big difference for those at risk of homelessness in the Fleurieu.

The Fleurieu Accommodation Project will grow to include at least three additional homes and a dedicated case worker following a $160k funding boost from a local community consortium. The innovative pilot uses a head lease model securing private rentals and subletting them to people who don’t have a safe or stable place to call home.

Led by Junction Australia, the initiative is backed by the Fleurieu Community Foundation, Rotary Victor Harbor, Community Bank Fleurieu, Zonta Club of the Fleurieu Peninsula and Elders Real Estate Victor Harbor.

Junction CEO Maria Palumbo said since its launch in 2024, the project has supported 32 people across four properties with the latest investment helping to scale-up impact.

“This is a targeted, innovative local solution in the midst of a dire and broader systemic challenge,” she said. “It’s a model built on trust between Junction, our valued partners who are making this possible, and the people we support.”
