INTERNSHIPS AND VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
All interns and volunteers are encouraged to get involved in the running of Eat United, as well as working hands on in the food collection and communities.
Volunteering is flexible to suit your availability and skillset.
our philosophy
We value your initiative and drive.
After all, Eat United grew from a group of young people with a little experience and a lot of vision. We believe that young people CAN and should act to ensure a positive future for humanity and the earth we inhabit.
We actively encourage reflection and constructive criticism.
"What effects do our actions have? On who? What about in the long-term? How can we do better?"
These are some of the questions that any non-profit must ask. We want you to engage and work with us on them!

If you want to volunteer full-time, you can still apply. You might want to consider taking on a volunteer project as well. Read on below for more information.
