ABOUT US

The Salvation Army is a Christian movement and one of Australia's largest and most-loved charities.  We believe in doing good that transforms lives and futures for the better.  It is this belief which drives us to find new ways and places where we can make a difference. From times of personal crisis to moments of national grief, we are always here — providing support, safety, community, and opportunity.

Are you ready for an incredible journey filled with purpose, community, and endless opportunities to make a difference? The SAES is calling YOU to be a part of our vibrant and passionate team.

Make an Impact: As a volunteer of the SAES you'll often be found in the midst of crisis and disaster situations nationally and internationally. Whether it’s a natural disaster like a cyclone, flood, bushfire or earthquake, or an incident such as a transport accident, structure fire or missing person search, SAES volunteers meet communities at their point of need. 

Be a force for good: Whether it's as a Response Team on the ground providing catering services to state emergency services such as police, fire and other first responders, as well as in evacuation and recovery centres. Or as part of our Recovery Teams stepping in to provide services in support of the medium- and long-term needs of the community. This assistance can include financial assistance, material aid and personal support. SAES volunteers are a force for good!

Build Lifelong Friendships: SAES Teams welcome everyone with open arms. Forge lasting friendships, connect with like-minded individuals, and experience the joy of belonging to a caring, supportive community of volunteers.
