Volunteering at the UWSA

We’re looking for volunteers to support our services, events, and to help engage students around our campaigns. When we have other volunteer opportunities you can sign up to them here: theuwsa.ca/general-volunteer

Student At-Large

Join one of the UWSA Board of Directors committees to help make a difference and gain experience on what it’s like to be part of a non-profit organization. The committees include a combination of directors and students-at-large. On the committee you’ll be reviewing submitted materials, vote on businesses, and make decision that have the best interest of UWinnipeg students.

Foodbank Volunteer

The volunteer-driven UWSA Foodbank was created to provide regular food supplements during the year to University of Winnipeg students and community members in need. Though it operates primarily in conjunction with Harvest Manitoba, the Foodbank actively seeks additional donations from university groups and other community-based organizations. Volunteers must be available on Fridays from 12PM – 5PM to be eligible to apply.

Bike Lab Volunteer

Established in 2011, the UWSA Bike Lab is the central hub for cyclers in Winnipeg’s downtown core. It’s an easily accessible on-campus maintenance pit-stop for students and community members. The lab hosts workshops for all skill levels and it is also open during the week for cyclists to drop-by and work on their bikes.
