Volunteer Expo Dublin 15 

We are excited to announce the return of our Volunteer Expo Dublin 15 this autumn!

Join us once again at Blanchardstown Library this October for a fantastic opportunity to connect with the local community and showcase the invaluable work your organisation does.

The Volunteer Expo offers: 

A platform for non-profit organisations to promote their work, engage with potential volunteers, and attract new support.

An opportunity for members of the public to discover local organisations, learn about their missions, and explore volunteering roles that match their interests.

Who can participate? 
Organisations seeking volunteers in the Dublin 15 area are invited to take part in the upcoming expo.

As spaces are limited, we encourage you to express your interest early by emailing volunteers@volunteerfingal.ie. Participation will be confirmed subject to availability.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out —we are here to help.

We look forward to seeing your organisation represented at the Volunteer Expo and working together to strengthen our Dublin15 community.
