Run by students, for students

Studenteer connects students and recent graduates to charities, good causes and mentors for remote, volunteer placements.

We understand the need for worthwhile, valuable work experience and the difficulties many are facing due to COVID-19, and so, we match proactive and enthusiastic students or recent graduates with these remote opportunities with causes that need this help more than ever.

Become a Studenteer and develop your skills from home, from 3+ hours per week.
