VOLUNTEERS DON'T GET PAID, NOT BECAUSE THEY'RE WORTHLESS BUT mm BECAUSE THEY'RE PRICELESS -Sherry Anderson

We rely on many wonderful volunteers to create and carry out our numerous activities! Whether you are interested in learning a new skill or continuing to use a well-honed talent, AWA has a place for you. Please note you must be an AWA member to volunteer for any of these positions.

Current Volunteer Opportunites Communications - Magazine Positions The AWA’s bi-monthly magazine is looking for writers, copy editors and photographers to join our team. Time commitment is flexible and can fit into any schedule. Email editor@awasingapore.org. for more information.

Our members have a huge range of interests and expertise, so each month we invite an AWA member to talk (currently via Zoom) on a topic they are passionate about.

Email office@ awasingapore.org for more information. Special Interest - Choir Director The AWA International Choir has been a part of community outreach for over fifteen years.
