Welcome
Your time, your terms.
This section of TheSite.org is about virtual volunteering, a concept which allows you to volunteer when it suits you best and in a way which fits in with your life. Virtual volunteering (also known as online volunteering) means volunteer tasks are completed, in whole or in part, via the internet at a home, work or other computer.
Here you will find:
- A database of virtual volunteering opportunities;
- Examples of what you can do;
- Tools to help you do it;
- Real life interviews with young virtual volunteers;
- An action centre full of ideas to help you change the world, taking as much or as little time as you want.
By becoming a virtual volunteer you can get involved in a huge range of different activities at any time, from any place. Some people find it difficult to get a suitable volunteering opportunity with a charity or organisation, maybe because of mobility issues or work commitments. Volunteering virtually provides opportunities which aren't affected by these constraints.
Virtual volunteering allows you to complete tasts at a time and place that suits you best, so you aren't excluded because you're unable to work on-site during office hours. By searching our database you'll have a choice of a huge selection of different opportunities and many allow you to choose how much time you can commit. If you want to get involved just start searching for your perfect volunteering opportunity.
