Volunteer with us!
The success of Citywise Education is the fruit of the work of its remarkable volunteers, local leaders, third-level students, and graduates. Our volunteers are essential to ensure Citywise can reach as many young people as possible without financially burdening their families, but they are also key role models for the students we serve.
Whether by tutoring, coaching or supervising activities, volunteers help us ensure we can fulfil our mission: that young people in underserved communities have the same support and opportunities to raise their academic and professional ambitions, while becoming active leaders in their own communities. You can also support Citywise’s work through fundraising, either by donating or by joining us in fundraising activities.
