[NEC 76] Goals of the Fiji Volunteer Service76 

76
(1) The purpose of the Fiji Volunteer Service is to engage unemployed persons and retirees who wish to serve society in the spirit of volunteering in any local, regional or international undertakings, including green growth projects.
(2) In the human development process, a person may wish to become a professional volunteer as an alternative or as part of their personal development before being absorbed into the formal or self-employment sectors either within Fiji or overseas.
(3) The goal of the service is to develop a strong sense of civic pride and alleviate social problems in our nation. Volunteering is considered one of the best and productive forms of personal and professional development, richly adding value to society in the most cost-effective and caring ways through free contribution of efforts, skills and time in charitable ventures and humanitarian assistance to the less fortunate people in society.
