WE NEED
We are currently looking at the role of volunteers in the immediate aftermath of the earthquakes and during the long term rebuild. After completing evidential and anecdotal research, we plan to talk with member organisations to assess your needs. If you have information in this area or are interested in being involved in the process, please contact us. We will be using this information to formulate a strategy as to how VolCan can best assist in the rebuild.
