We’ve got some exciting news to share, FreddyMatch has officially partnered with the St Vincent de Paul Society (Vinnies)! This milestone also marks the launch of our new campaign, Powering Purpose.

At its heart, Powering Purpose is about connection. Our goal is to connect big causes with big communities, creating a space where leading charities, grassroots organisations, and passionate volunteers can come together to create lasting change.

By joining FreddyMatch, Vinnies can now easily share and manage their volunteer opportunities on our platform, making it simpler for people to find the right role, right when it’s needed. From lending a hand in op shops to supporting vital community services, Vinnies volunteers play a huge role in making a difference, and now, finding those opportunities is easier than ever.

FreddyMatch Founder Roxane Foulser-Piggott is excited about the partnership and to continue to expand Powering Purpose into the community. 

“We’re so proud to welcome Vinnies into the FreddyMatch family,” said Dr Foulser-Piggott.

“Their work is incredible, and with the support of our community of volunteers, we can help amplify their impact across Australia.”

She went on to explain that the launch of Powering Purpose represents more than just a campaign, it’s a statement about how charities and communities can work hand-in-hand to drive meaningful change.

“Powering Purpose is about making sure every big cause gets the community it deserves,” said Dr Foulser-Piggott. 

“This is just the beginning of what we can achieve together.”

With Vinnies onboard, our community of volunteers here at FreddyMatch has even more opportunities to give back. 

And that’s what we’re all about here at FreddyMatch, making volunteering simple, accessible, and impactful.
