Australian Business Volunteers

ABV is a team of several hundred Skilled Business Professionals (SBPs) enabled by a small salaried team. Together we source opportunities throughout Asia Pacific and in Australia to work in partnership with corporates and deliver impactful corporate social responsibility programs. We guarantee sustainable outcomes for communities, through strengthening small businesses and not for profits, leading to poverty alleviation.

With 40 years’ experience across Australia, Asia and Pacific, ABV is focussed on programs that produce outcomes, positive stories of change for the small businesses and not-for-profits that our Skilled Business Professionals and staff support through transferring Australian business know-how and experience.

ABV has been partnering with NAB since 2018 to deliver a highly transformational immersive skilled volunteering offering for employees, which provides community partners with implementable, valuable solutions for a scoped business challenge enabling greater social impact. Additionally, in 2020 NAB and ABV piloted a community-led approach to bushfire recovery in Cobargo, NSW which expanded in 2021 to other Council areas of southern NSW through funding from Resilience NSW and in fire-affected areas of Victoria through grant funding from NAB Foundation.
