What Kind of Volunteers Are We Looking For?

Hardworking, Enthusiastic, Proactive

We look for volunteers who are pro-active, enthusiastic and hard working. Volunteers have made such an invaluable contribution to Looksociety work in the past and we are always looking for fresh ideas and skills.

We ask that volunteers apply so that we get the information that we need to match our expectations and yours.

We want to give our volunteers a wonderful, life-enriching experience while at the same time gaining from their experience and skills.

Once volunteers have been accepted by our team, they are asked to come in and discuss the role with our volunteer co-coordinator. Volunteers are given the opportunity to have a day long orientation and visit all the project sites. This can give volunteers great insight into the work Looksociety does and inspire them as to what and where their skills are most useful.

Many volunteers become long term friends of Looksociety and continue contact even after their volunteering experience.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are available exclusively on weekends, we will not be able to accommodate you as a volunteer. Our clients are encouraged to rest and engage in leisure activities on the weekend, and most of our mentors and staff are unavailable on Saturday and Sunday.

HOWEVER, those who wish to exclusively engage in writing engagements are encouraged to do so even if they are only available on the weekend.
