If you have ever wanted to make a difference, get involved in the community or take on a cause, then consider becoming a volunteer.

Volunteering allows you to engage with the local and wider community whilst gaining valuable experience that will assist your personal and professional growth. Develop leadership and teamwork skills, pursue new interests and career opportunities, get practical experience, meet new people and gain a sense of achievement and fulfilment.

Research shows that employers value volunteer experience highly and are more likely to select candidates who have volunteered over those who do not have this experience.

Not only that, here at UWA there are plenty of volunteering opportunites that allow you to help your fellow students, so they can benefit from your experience.
