Partnering with a massive variety of charities and not-for-profit organisations, Volunteer Army gives students a fun, flexible, feel-good, opportunity to give back to the community. There are hundreds of volunteer opportunities available every term. You can find something that ignites your passions, compliments your degree or puts you outside your comfort zone.
Volunteer Army connects UNSW students with volunteering opportunities, fostering student engagement with the wider community.
