The Frank Lab team extends a warm welcome to CEO and Co-founder Victor Lee. We look forward to helping Communiteer continue to mobilise volunteers and tackle social challenges.
Volunteers are a vital part of our society, offering their skills, expertise and time. Sadly, numbers have declined over the years, as people's lives become busier with work and other activities. Those who want to volunteer may find it difficult to find the right volunteering opportunities that also align with their own values and interests. This is where Communiteer comes in.
Communiteer is a crowdsourcing community that connects and mobilises volunteers to tackle and solve social challenges. The online platform uses virtual volunteering technology to connect all involved in social good. The process matches volunteers with not-for-profits and for-purpose organisations, based on their ideology, skills and locality. Communiteer also uses the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to measure how virtual volunteering can create social impact.
CEO and Co-founder Victor Lee says Communiteer is a 'social good' network, which uses technology to make it easy for more people to do more good. Since it launched in mid-2018, Communiteer has collaborated with more than 500 charities and 6000 volunteers.
Given the impact of COVID-19 this year, volunteering will only increase in importance and Victor hopes to tap into the collective wisdom offered by Frank Lab to further Communiteer's mission.
