how is your day going? I am new to this website so just finding my way around and looking for new networks. As you can read on my profile I am working at Givealittle.co.nz in New Zealand looking to support charities and projects.
I am looking around to find people who want to start great projects to volunteer or fund raise for something special they care about.
On the givealittle site we provide snazzy widgets and other great fund raising tools where volunteers can set up membership pages, start fund raising campaigns and manage all donations coming in!
Maybe have a look and be inspired for your future dream of going abroad ;-)
Check out some cool examples. Its worth it as it does not involve any costs ;-)
You should call in to Volunteering Canterbury. They have lots of volunteering opportunities for you to consider. You can find them on the ground floor of Christchurch Community House, 141 Hereford St. You can call them on 366 2442 and email them on vc@volcan.org.nz. You can find what they have to offer on www.volunteernow.org.nz - look at the positions for Canterbury.
