Volunteerism and the Community

Question: You are asked to choose a community organisation that is actively involved in emergency and disaster management, and that has volunteering as a fundamental part of their organisational composition.

You can select any relevant organisation with a volunteer focus or involvement, noting some examples have been provided in the Learning Guide (see Moodle). You are to develop a presentation using PowerPoint, based upon this topic.

Your presentation must include the following:

• Name your chosen volunteer emergency service focused organisation and its charter (who are they and what do they do)
• Describe the chosen organisations key demographics (for example, location(s) of operation, number of volunteers, operational focus)
• Describe the role volunteering plays within your selected organisation and its impact on the community it serves
• Describe the various functions or activities that the organisation's volunteers perform with respect to emergency and disaster management preparation, response and/or recovery. Get expert-level assistance in any subject with our assignment help services.
• Analyse the organisation using a SWOT analysis. What are the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats for your chosen organisation?

Your recommendation must draw on your understanding of the literature and you must use that literature to support your recommendations.
