Opportunités de bénévolat à Barrie - Student

Living Green Barrie is seeking tech-savvy volunteers to help strengthen the digital systems that support our local climate action programs. We are building a small, collaborative Tech Support Team made up of individuals with a range of skills — from WordPress and website support to data organization, digital tools, and basic cybersecurity best practices. Volunteers may assist with website updates and usability improvements, database organization, streamlining internal systems (such as Google Workspace and online forms), or advising on simple security and data protection measures appropriate for a growing nonprofit.This is a flexible, team-based role — not a one-person IT department or on-call support position. Opportunities may range from a few hours per month to short-term projects, depending on your availability and interests.If you have technical skills and want to apply them in a meaningful way, this is a great opportunity to support environmental initiatives in Barrie, gain nonprofit experience, and contribute behind the scenes to community climate action.
