Volunteering Society: President

As president of the Volunteering Society, I will foster a sense of community amongst volunteers and do my best to support them through their volunteering journey. I want to help people have a positive impact on the community and help them find volunteering projects they are passionate about. 

Over this year, I have worked as kitchen volunteer in a women's support centre. This experience has allowed me to see how impactful creating supportive communities could be, and helped me better understand the many implications of women's rights. 

If I am elected, I would like to develop fundraising projects in link with research, and promote local volunteering projects :)
