This year marks the first PILCH Volunteer of the Year Award, introduced by PILCH in recognition of the outstanding commitment and achievements of one PILCH volunteer, as part of National Volunteer Week.
We are very pleased to announce that the PILCH Volunteer of the Year 2007-2008 is in fact a tie between Verena Tan and Matthew Raggatt.
Verena and Matthew were chosen by PILCH staff from a pool of over 60 law students that have assisted PILCH since winter 2007. Verena has been an ongoing volunteer at PILCH since second semester 2007. Matthew began at PILCH this semester on a student placement from La Trobe University. During their time at PILCH both Verena and Matthew have demonstrated a real commitment to PILCH and its values, displayed initiative and enthusiasm for the work, a professional manner and excellent written skills and research skills. Verena and Matthew will each receive a book voucher of $150 - thank you to Allens Arthur Robinson, Clayton Utz and Minter Ellison for contributing to this prize.
In addition to the award, we have also launched a volunteer Wall of Honourwhich lists all volunteers who have provided very valuable assistance to PILCH. Thank you to all our volunteers past and present for your hard work and commitment – we truly could not do without you.
