NEWS & EVENTS

YOUR U3A NEEDS YOU!

27/2/2023

 
Picture
Did you know that U3A Southern Gold Coast operates entirely through the efforts of dedicated volunteers. These volunteers give up their time so we can provide classes and activities for our members. No-one gets paid.
​
​Volunteers are, however, human. They have families, and interests and commitments outside U3A. Please don’t take advantage of their generosity. If jobs are shared among many we all benefit.
