It is an amazing way to give back to the community and meet new people from all different countries. Volunteering allows you to create amazing memories and have fun while giving a helping hand. You get to see behind the scenes of events, get closer to the action,

and be a part of making events possible. Join The Pack today!!

CLUBS & SOCIETIESHOW TO JOIN A CLUB AND SOCIETYIt’s easy! Simply visit ActivateUTS website at activateuts.com.au, create a user account, or login if you already have an account. Hover over “Social” then click on the “ActivateClubs” tab. Select the clubs you wish to join and click “Add to cart”. Click “My Cart” to finalise your club membership payment. You will then receive an email confirming your order and welcoming you to the club. Alternatively, you can contact the club directly to arrange becoming a member.

HOW TO START A CLUB OR SOCIETYIf you haven’t found a club or society that suits your needs and want to enhance your overall uni experience, why not start your own! Most affliliated clubs are fully-fledged clubs; they charge membership fees, operate a bank account, have annual general meetings, a formally elected executive committee, and a constitution and are therefore eligible for ActivateUTS grants.

Next club affiliation date 15th January 2017. Email [email protected] for more details. For an application to be successful, the applying club must be sufficiently different from any existing club.
