Volunteering when you know you will make a significant difference in someone’s life is one of the most rewarding things you can do.
You can volunteer on:
- a one-off basis or
- put your hand up to be a regular.
Volunteering opportunities include:
- help at our monthly Bangalow market stall
- Bunnings BBQs
- various fundraising events – film, theatre and concert nights.
Organising an event:
We’d also welcome you organising fundraising events on behalf of NRFR. If this is something of interest, please get in contact with our Volunteer coordinator to discuss further.
Other ways to volunteer:
We also need volunteers behind-the-scenes to help with organising, promoting and being a part of the NRFR management committee, and of course welcoming refugee families to the Northern Rivers!
Express your interest to volunteer
“I have volunteered with Northern Rivers for Refugees since 2015 because I cannot abide injustice. Australia’s abysmal treatment of refugees and asylum seekers is the driver.”
