About Us: You Belong is dedicated to fostering inclusivity and support for refugees, or as we call them, Waymakers, in Toowoomba. Our Learner Driver Mentor Program (LDMP) aims to provide crucial driving experience to empower individuals striving to navigate the road to success in their new home. Our mission is to welcome and empower Waymakers to belong and thrive.

The Role: As a Mentor Driver, you'll play a vital role in helping our learners gain confidence behind the wheel.

Your responsibilities include:

  • Guiding learners through practical driving sessions.
  • Sharing road safety tips and best practices.
  • Creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment.
  • Being a part of welcoming Waymakers into your community

Why Volunteer with Us?

  • Make a meaningful impact: Help Waymakers overcome obstacles, empowering them to integrate into the community with confidence.
  • Supporting families: Many of our learners have families, and so your support of them has an immediate ripple effect.
  • Flexible scheduling: Coordinate driving lessons around your availability! As little as an hour or two a week at a time that suits your schedule.
  • Community building: Strengthen connections in Toowoomba while promoting road safety.

Who We Need: We welcome individuals of all backgrounds and experiences who possess an Open Australian Driver's License. What truly matters is your willingness to serve and support others on their journey.

Those with proficiency in Arabic or Kurdish Kurmanji are particularly encouraged to apply.
