Activities on the day

Depending on the needs of SolarBuddy you could be assisting in a variety of activities during your volunteering session including:

Quality control of JuniorBuddy or StudentBuddy lights

before our lights are distributed to those that need them, we ensure that they are assembled correctly. Use your problem solving skills and eye for detail to ensure that all the screws are there, the lights work and are ready to be sent to children globally.

Quality control of letters

Everyone who assembles one of our lights is asked to write a letter to the child receiving it. Use your eye for detail to ensure that guidelines have been followed from our LetterBuddy program.

Letter writing

Letters are an integral and important part of our programs. For many, these letters are the first piece of formal communication that the children will have received outside of their community. They are cherished and read over and over. Occasionally we receive lights back without letters so we will ask you to use your creative skills to write heartwarming letters to a child receiving a solar solution.

Enhance our impact by reviewing media for marketing material

Review photos and videos from communities where lights have been distributed. These will then be added to our website, social media and YouTube channel.

Location

Team volunteering events are held at our SolarBuddy office, located at 3/11 Breene Place, Morningside, Brisbane

Time: 9.30am – 12.30pm (Can accommodate alternative times if required)
