| 释义 |
The Ampersand Network was a not-for-profit organisation, committed to improving the appeal and accessibility of volunteering for young people in Australia.[1] Ampersand was founded on the belief that exposing young people to social and environmental need will produce a more broad-minded and socially engaged generation of leaders than might otherwise emerge. Since its launch in 2005,[2] the Ampersand Network has provided access to over 5,000 volunteer opportunities Australia wide, and hundreds more with international development agencies abroad, such as Australian Volunteers International, Students Partnership Worldwide and Global Vision International.[3] Each year, the Ampersand Walk[4] gives young Australians the opportunity to 'volunteer their feet' for not-for-profit organisations with a proven track record in utilising young volunteers.[5] In 2007, Ampersand partnered with yconnect? to promote the Walk and raise funds for the Australian Red Cross.[6] The Ampersand Network's website was last updated in April 2011.[7] RecognitionTwo of its directors were Victorian finalists in the Young Australian of the Year.[8][9] In 2004, The Ampersand Network was applauded for its work in The Australian Senate.[10] In 2005, The Ampersand Network was the recipient of an Anti-Poverty Award for Young Victorians.[11] References1. ^http://www.ampersand.org.au/ 2. ^'Helping hands get a slice of life, Herald Sun, 14/03/05, p61 3. ^'If you do one thing today...', The Age, 04/04/05, p7 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ampersand.org.au/2008ampersandwalk |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2008-04-19 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080626091814/http://www.ampersand.org.au/2008ampersandwalk |archivedate=2008-06-26 |df= }} 5. ^ {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070902101823/http://www.parkweb.vic.gov.au/1whatson.cfm?event=1655 |date=September 2, 2007 }} 6. ^{{Cite web|archive-url=http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/32183/20071220-0002/www.redcross.org.au/vic/yconnect_ampersandwalk.html|title=Australian Red Cross|last=|first=|date=|website=Australian Red Cross|archive-date=20 December 2007|url=http://www.redcross.org.au/vic/yconnect_ampersandwalk.html|access-date=2018-02-03}} 7. ^{{Cite web|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110810070621/http://www.ampersand.org.au/|title=AMPERSAND {{!}} The Ampersand Network assists students find volunteer positions in Australia and overseas.|last=|first=|date=2011-08-10|website=|archive-date=August 10, 2011|url=http://www.ampersand.org.au/|access-date=2018-02-03}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.australianoftheyear.gov.au/pages/bio.asp?pID=325|title=Australian of the Year Awards|date=|publisher=Australianoftheyear.gov.au|accessdate=2014-06-24}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.australianoftheyear.gov.au/pages/page353.asp|title=Australian of the Year Awards|date=|publisher=Australianoftheyear.gov.au|accessdate=2014-06-24}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://parlinfo.aph.gov.au/parlInfo/genpdf/chamber/hansards/2004-08-09/0151/hansard_frag.pdf;fileType%3Dapplication%2Fpdf|title=The Senate Adjournment: Ampersand Speech|last=Fifield|first=Mitchell|publisher=Australian Senate|format=PDF}} 11. ^ {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070830025342/http://www.antipoverty.unitingchurch.org.au/recipients2005.htm|date=August 30, 2007}} External links
