Launched in May 2025 in partnership with My Community Directory, the Queensland Volunteer Involving Organisation (VIO) Register is the first initiative of its kind—bringing together organisations across Queensland that involve, or want to involve, volunteers.
By joining the VIO Register, you become part of a growing statewide network working together to improve volunteer experiences and build stronger communities.
As part of this network, you gain access to an exclusive Volunteer Centre on My Community Directory providing you with local volunteering insights, practical tools, resources and powerful data to support your volunteer program.
Join the VIO Register today to unlock the Volunteer Centre and start elevating your volunteer program.
Is your organisation already on the VIO Register?
Volunteering Queensland has partnered with MCD to make the VIO Register possible.
My Community Directory is for community organisations that provide services and activities with a community benefit.
To join the VIO Register, you will first need to create a free MCD listing.
Now that your organisation is listed on My Community Directory, the next step is to complete your Volunteer Program Information. This will add you to the VIO Register and activate your access to the Volunteer Center.
Completing your Volunteer Program Information will only take 2 minutes, allowing you to share basic details about your volunteer program. Once completed you will unlock full access to the Volunteer Centre.
Note: The user guides below step you through the process of updating your volunteer program information to join the VIO Register. There are tailored guides for organisations with a single location and organisations with multiple locations.
Congrats! You are now a part of the VIO Register giving you access to the Volunteer Centre where you can find valuable tools, resources and data. The Volunteer Centre will allow your organisation to:
