About This Opportunity
U+ Community - Unpaid volunteer opportunity
Put your visual ideas to work on materials people will actually use. As a Graphic Design & Video Volunteer with U+ Community, you will help turn approved messages and event footage into posters, presentation templates and short videos. Your work can make program information easier to understand and bring community activities to life.
About U+ Community

What You Will Do
You enjoy visual communication and have some familiarity with a design or video-editing tool. You can follow a brief, explain your choices and work through revisions. Attention to readability and willingness to learn are as valuable as creative ideas.
What You Will Gain
Practise designing for real audiences, editing short videos and responding to feedback. Develop your understanding of accessible visual communication and how creative work supports community participation.
Support and responsibility
Staff review the brief, materials and final output. Work within the tools and account access the team authorizes, and protect participants' privacy when using event content.
