National Volunteer Week (NVW) is an annual celebration to acknowledge the generous contribution of our nation’s volunteers. The theme for 2018 is: Give a little. Change a lot. This theme represents the millions of volunteers who make a significant impact in their communities and on society, by giving a little of their time. National Volunteer Week in 2018 will be held from 21-27 May 2018, so it no longer clashes with the Federal Budget.
