Fundraising
Volunteers are encouraged to fundraise for overseas volunteering, which can be a lot of fun and can help prepare volunteers for their time overseas. This can include:
- Traditional fundraising
- Applying for grants - the University offers the Global Impact Awards, three Travel Awards and the Work Experience Bursary
- Crowdfunding - the University also has a crowdfunding platform that students can request to use.
If brokering opportunities, please ensure that the volunteering organisations have fundraising support in place.
The Volunteering and Community Engagement Team can also provide advice and support via the international volunteering web pages, the online Fundraising Toolkit and face to face fundraising advice.
