At Femina, volunteer work is a vital part of our mission.

Here’s why:

  • Volunteers help us achieve our mission. They use their time, skills, and passion to advance causes related to women’s empowerment, advocacy, and social change.
  • Amplifying resources: Volunteers help the organisation reach more people. With limited resources, NGOs rely on volunteers to expand their reach through community outreach, events, or programmes.
  • Community Building: Volunteering helps build a sense of community. Volunteers connect with like-minded individuals, creating a supportive network that strengthens the organisation.
  • Advocacy and Awareness: Volunteers advocate for the NGO’s work. They raise awareness, engage with the public, and mobilise others to support the cause.

We’re lucky to have such a diverse group of volunteers with different backgrounds and experiences. Volunteers come from all walks of life and have a wealth of different experiences and ideas. Their fresh perspectives help us make better decisions and improve the effectiveness of our programmes.
