Volunteering Expo 2026

The UC Volunteering Expo, run in collaboration with The Centre of Employability and Career Development, is your chance to discover volunteering opportunities that can help you build skills, confidence and experience for your future career.

Not-for-profit (NFP) organisations from across Ōtautahi Christchurch and Waitaha Canterbury will be on campus for the afternoon, ready to connect with UC students and staff interested in volunteering. Whether you're looking for a one-off opportunity or something longer-term, the expo is a great way to explore what’s out there, expand your networks and gain experience that could enhance your employability.

Run in partnership with Volunteering Canterbury, the expo continues to be a valuable way to contribute to the wider community while developing competencies that can support your personal and professional growth.
