Volunteering is the practice of giving your time and energy for the benefit of other people and the environment. To put it simply, volunteering is doing more than you have to, because you want to, because you care. It is about being an active citizen, a change-maker and innovative individual whose aim is to make the world a better place in any way they can.

Volunteering impacts positively on society, on communities and on the people who live in those communities. Whether formal or informal, organised or spontaneous, volunteering is about civic engagement and active participation in shaping the society we want to be part of.

At DCU we have a wide variety of volunteer opportunities on and off campus. Whatever your interests, skills or abilities – there is something for you!
