Celebrating National Volunteer Week: Honouring the Heart of 3ZZZ Community Radio
This National Volunteer Week, we proudly celebrate the incredible dedication, passion, and cultural richness that volunteers bring to 3ZZZ, broadcasting from our home in Brunswick to communities across Melbourne and beyond.
At the heart of 3ZZZ are more than just microphones and mixing desks — it's our volunteers who breathe life into every broadcast. With programs in 63 different languages, our multicultural station reflects the brilliant diversity of our city. From storytelling and news to music and cultural commentary, our volunteers ensure that communities — many of whom are underrepresented in mainstream media — have a voice and a platform.
Community radio wouldn’t be possible without these committed individuals who give their time, knowledge, and heart. Whether they’re behind the mic, helping with production, organising events, training new broadcasters, or supporting the station’s daily operations — they are the unsung heroes connecting cultures, building community, and strengthening social cohesion.
To every 3ZZZ volunteer who shares stories, preserves languages, and uplifts communities — thank you. Your voices shape the sound of inclusion, and your efforts make a world of difference.
Happy National Volunteer Week from all of us at 3ZZZ.
