Why volunteer?
There are many reasons why volunteering could be a great next step for you, including:

- Build your skills
- Test your fit for certain types of work

Volunteering opportunities
Each of these organisations are either Australia/New Zealand focused, or have substantial teams in Australia. You can check out their work, and let them know you’re interested in volunteering. They might not all have volunteering opportunities available all the time, but we encourage you to reach out.
