What it’s like to volunteer at Humanists Australia!
Hello, humanists of Australia! My name is Meagan and I’m an events volunteer for Humanists Australia in sunny Perth. I’ve been doing this volunteer job for a couple of months now and really enjoy it because I like finding out what is happening out there in the community and it’s a chance for me to support a cause that’s important to me at a grassroots level. It’s meaningful and that’s cool! I set aside a few hours a month to find relevant events and add them to our big spreadsheet – it’s simple and a great way to get involved.
