πŸ’› Volunteering

Our volunteers play a key role in bringing the IMINSA’s initiatives to life! As a general volunteer, you’ll assist the executive team with fundraisers, events, and outreach activities. Whether it’s helping set up, engaging with students, or supporting event logistics, volunteers are essential in creating a welcoming and energetic environment!

This is a great way to get involved, meet new people, and contribute to the Immunology & Infection student community!
