Volunteering is the ultimate exercise in democracy.You vote in elections once a year, but when you volunteer, you vote every day about the kind of community you want to live in."
- Marjorie Moore
At Rubicon Foundation we believe volunteers bring diverse expertise, perspectives, and experiences to our organisation, enriching the work we aim to do and the impact we envisage. They also bring new ideas and approaches to addressing social challenges. This diversity leads to innovation, creativity, and more effective solutions. Our young volunteers have come from all over the country and from different backgrounds. They have brought with them enthusiasm and new ideas that have helped to make a real difference in our work. Our volunteers are an integral part of our team and we are proud to have them on board. Are you passionate about making a positive impact?

Volunteer Knowledge-Sharing Sessions
Career Insights & Employability Skills
In this session, students have the valuable opportunity to connect and engage with experienced corporate leaders and fellow team members. These corporate professionals are on hand to answer questions, provide guidance, and generously share their own career journeys, which frequently include stories of overcoming challenges. These interactions are instrumental in fostering the students' personal growth and instilling confidence in their own career paths, knowing that even these accomplished professionals began their journeys with their fair share of obstacles.
Resume Drafting & Interview Planning
