SOCIAL ENTERPRISE volunteers

Social enterprises exist to solve a social problem. From helping to create clean drinking water, to saving forests, each has a cause to change the world for the better. Social enterprise volunteers help keep social enterprises running. Their skills sets vary but one thing they have in common is the desire for change. 

The great thing about social enterprise volunteering is that there are an abundance of causes to choose from. Think eco-fashion brands that might need some social media love, or lunch delivery services that need drivers to send nutritious packed lunches to vulnerable school children. If you have a particular skill set or have a cause you’re passionate about, you might want to consider social enterprise volunteering. 

Social enterprises run much like a commercial business except they have a social cause. They create a positive imprint in the world but they don’t always have the resources or funding to fulfil their mission. That’s where social enterprise volunteers come in. They help fill the gaps and help social enterprises run their organisation. When you choose social enterprise volunteering, you’re making a change in the world.

Social Enterprise volunteering fuels tomorrow’s change-makers!

We’ve made social enterprise volunteering easy to get involved in. We know you probably have a full time job, or projects on the go. It’s why we work with social enterprises to ensure that the work you’d have can work with your schedule. All the projects we post on Vollie have flexible working options meaning that you can contribute to causes you love on your own time. This is especially handy when you’re working with a social enterprise on the other side of the world where the time difference may be a factor. Social enterprise volunteering is a great way to gain experience in larger organisations and contribute to a social cause you’re passionate about.
