Make your #ABC90for90 pledge
| Volunteer together, make the pledge |
|
ABC Radio has partnered with Volunteering Australia to encourage Aussies to get creative and help each other out by pledging 90 minutes of their time. Get together with your friends, family and colleagues and make the pledge. There are so many ways to give back; pick up rubbish at your local park or beach, host a ‘crafternoon’ with friends to knit toys for children in need, or walk a dog at the local shelter. |
