Sea Shepherd AU Onshore Volunteer- Coffs Harbour NSW
About this opportunity
For Sea Shepherd, public awareness is a large component of our overall strategy to defend, conserve, and protect the marine environment. Our aim is to educate people about the plight of the oceans, the problems facing their inhabitants, and share with the public how they can make a difference in their day-to-day lives. Being a volunteer, you can help Sea Shepherd in many ways including building awareness of our mission and campaigns through outreach, growing support through broadening our donor and member base and fundraising. Participating on stalls, educating others, providing contacts, and putting your special skills to use for us, are all important aspects that contribute to the succeeding in our mission.
