Keen, committed voluntary staff have always played a vital role in Greenpeace.
As a volunteer you'll have the opportunity to join a local or fundraising community group, be involved in campaign actions or perhaps help out in one of the Greenpeace offices.
If you have relevant skills or interests, we can discuss how to incorporate these into your voluntary work. Our volunteers sometimes assist with research, local actions, fundraising, information technology or as tradespeople.
