gender studiesWould you like to benefit from the volunteer support of 3rd year students from the Institute of Feminist and Gender Studies at the University of Ottawa (Canada)?

Students can offer you 30 hours of virtual volunteer support between mid-September and early December 2020. uOttawa has a program titled Community Service Learning (CSL).

You have the opportunity to tap into a pool of dedicated students to expand your organization's resources and capacity!
