AUSA Volunteers<br />
This is a great way to learn new skills, meet new people and can<br />
be flexible to fit around your studies. AUSA staff can help you to<br />
become a committee member, an AUSA volunteer or a volunteer for<br />
a local group or charity. All your volunteering hours count towards<br />
the Saltire Award which is a Scottish Government programme<br />
established to recognise the contribution of young people to society.<br />
Fundraising<br />
AUSA Raising and Giving (AUSA RAG) is the main student led<br />
fundraising campaign which raises money each year for local<br />
charities. RAG is particularly known for its Torcher Parade, RAG<br />
Week, Fashion Show and <strong>Student</strong> Show.<br />
RAG raises funds throughout the year by holding lots of fun and<br />
interesting events for students to get involved in.<br />
