Last week was National Volunteering Week!

In 2025, Belong To was supported by 73 amazing volunteers between our youth engagement volunteers, events volunteers, our Board, our committees, fundraisers and corporate volunteers.

In 2026, we've been delighted to welcome even more events volunteers to the team already with another round of recruitment happening this weekend 👏

We could not provide the same level of support to LGBTQ+ young people without our volunteers generously giving their time, skills and dedication. Thank you!
