The Wheatbelt Volunteer Hub and Volunteering WA is calling out for local groups and organisations to thank their volunteers during the upcoming National Volunteer Week in May.
Grants of up to $1000 are available to organise an event that recognises and thanks volunteers for their contribution to the community.
Volunteering WA chief executive Tina Williams said volunteers are the backbone of communities around the state, and it is important to acknowledge their contributions.
"Volunteers and organisations who generously and regularly give their time to making our communities better places to live should be recognised and celebrated however there is often a lack of funding to do so," Ms Williams said.
"The National Volunteer Week 2019 Grants provide this funding and are a great way for organisations to say thank you to their volunteers.”
Ms Williams suggested events such as team building days; hiring a motivational guest speaker to visit the office; treating the volunteers to lunch, dinner or even taking them out for a movie night.
Applications are open at the Volunteering WA website until March 10.
