Kowi Volunteers

Lend A Hand

We're looking for new recruits for executive board for 2011. Take a look at this Youtube clip of our 2009 executive board for more info.

Have you got some special skills that could help us? Perhaps you just like what Kowiana aims to do, and want to lend a hand?
We're always looking for positive like-minded individuals interested in helping our cause!

Please remember that all applications are on a voluntary and unpaid basis. That said, as anyone that's been involved so far will tell you, although it can be tough, it's also exciting and fun!

If you'd like to help Kowiana in some way, please fill out our online Kowi Volunteer Application. We'll be glad to hear from you!
