What is virtual volunteering?

Your time, your terms


Virtual volunteering is a way to get involved, take action, and generally 'give back' online, without some of the restrictions of other volunteering opportunities. It's been called volunteering, cyber activism and other names.

By becoming a virtual volunteer you can get involved in a huge range of different activities at any time, from any place. Many people find it difficult to get to a charity or organisation to help out, maybe because of mobility issues or work commitments, but volunteering virtually stops this being a problem.

Virtual volunteering allows you to arrange to complete tasks 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 will need to commit. So if you want to get involved just click the link below and start searching for your perfect volunteering opportunity.
