Sustain SU
Together We Can Make A World of Difference!
We are a service of the University of Alberta Students’ Union (SU) that provides peer-to-peer learning and support for all undergraduate students to incorporate sustainability into every aspect of their university experience. This includes providing sustainability-based services to the entire campus community, as well as opportunities to facilitate change on a larger scale.
Volunteer with us!
Join our volunteer team
Sustain SU is looking for sustainability-driven volunteers to join our Sustainability Ambassadors team and Leadership Team for this coming academic year!
Leadership Team members (LTs) are responsible for managing one of Sustain SU's projects and overseeing a group of Sustainability Ambassadors. This is a great role to gain leadership experience, and get to know others interested in sustainability. The hourly investment for LTs is 5 hours per week.
Applications for our Leadership Team members are now closed. Thank you for your interest! We can't wait for you to meet the new team.
Sustainability Ambassadors (SAs) work collaboratively to brainstorm, plan and execute the events and efforts stemming from these projects. This role allows you to meet new people with a passion for sustainability, work as part of a team, as well as put on great events throughout the year. The hourly investment for SAs is 2-3/hours per week.
Applications for Sustainability Ambassador positions are now closed. Thank you for applying! We often recruit additional volunteers for the Winter semester - stayed tuned for updates.
