Our Work in Student Engagement
My volunteering experience with Communiteer and Study NSW was crucial in getting my first job. The skills and references I gained enabled me to ace the interview, which turned out to be a wonderful experience in itself.
Volunteering has helped my mental health a lot, as I was lonely in the first months. Being a Study NSW Volunteer also helped me realise my self-worth and learn how I can build success and dreams from small steps.
Connections and experiences are priceless, and that is what this volunteering journey has truly exemplified for me. And I believe, there’s more for me to learn and share, the more I’m at the desk.
Volunteering with the Michael Hughes Foundation, you get to meet so many wonderful people working in an amazing team. It’s been such a lovely journey. It feels really nice to give back to the community.
I’m able to help out my local community and develop transferable skills for my future career. I recommend Communiteer because you can connect with a lot of different community organisations.
