February 20-26 is Student Volunteers Week 2012

1/6/2012

7 Comments

 
Volunteering England is pleased to announce that 20-26 February 2012 will be the eleventh year of Student Volunteering Week, so please put the date in your diary.

In the last major study 63% of surveyed students reported formally volunteering since they had started university, and gave just over 3 million hours to communities in the 2009/10 academic year.

Student Volunteering Week 2012, sponsored by Santander, celebrates the size and diversity of this contribution, as well as encouraging and supporting students and organisations in voluntary activities.
