Why do people volunteer for Oxfam?
Apart from wanting to work with others to overcome poverty and suffering, people are inspired and motivated to work for Oxfam for different reasons:
Students – course placement or work experience
Between jobs – a couple of months to spare before starting a new job
Retirement – making good use of years of expertise
Special interest/skill – which can make a valuable contribution
to Oxfam's work
Spare time – a few hours a week to get involved in something different
and rewarding
Whatever your reason is, we would love to hear from you!
