Volunteer your time

Every year WAO is helped by many volunteers. Their help is invaluable. We are always looking for volunteers, but we do need people who are able to make a regular commitment. Please contact us if you are able to make that commitment and help in any of the following areas:

•  Organise activities for the children.

•  Organise activities for the women, for example, craft sessions, language classes, cookery lessons, computer skills, or another idea you have which you would like to share.

•  Teach the children at the Refuge and Child Care Centre 

•  Spending time and listening to the women and children

•  Provide transport and accompany women who need to make police reports, go the hospital or run errands.

•  Help out at fundraising and/ or public education events

•  Help out with administrative work at WAO

We invite all new volunteers to join our orientations which are held in January, April, August and November each year. If you would like to meet us sooner, do let us know. We look forward to hearing from you!
