ALIVE: NUI Galway’s Student Volunteering Programme
Volunteering is a great way to meet new and interesting people. It also is a unique opportunity for students to increase their knowledge, skills and abilities so that they understand and appreciate the diversity of our society by working in partnership with communities for mutual benefit. ALIVE (A Learning Initiative and the Volunteering Experience) was established by the university to enable, harness, acknowledge and support the contribution that NUI Galway students make by volunteering at home, in Galway or within the university community itself. When you volunteer, you receive your ALIVE certificate, which is a great addition to your CV. www.studentvolunteer.ie/nuigalway
