About Volunteering

Firm FM

Wherever you live in the world, you can become personally involved with this global project, right now. As soon as you become a member you have priority registration as a volunteer.

As a charitable trust (non-profit organization) volunteers are our heart and soul. Your involvement may mean the success of any number of our projects. Your time, skills, experience and enthusiasm will make a difference.

We currently have no bricks and mortar presence, and this allows us to focus our energies and resources on sharing the stories of Pacific radio right from the start. It also means we welcome volunteers from anywhere in the world who can contribute both on-line and, in some cases, even in their own location.

All volunteers agree to our Code of Practice for Volunteers and should read the Radio Heritage Foundation Volunteer Code of Practice which sets out our obligations towards volunteers.

We also support The Universal Declaration on Volunteering adopted by the International Association for Volunteer Effort (IAVE) at Amsterdam, The Netherlands in January 2001 and as accepted by the United Nations.

Being a volunteer confers no voting or other rights within the Radio Heritage Foundation which reserves the right to accept or remove volunteers at its sole discretion.
