Volunteer

 Did you know Limmud South Africa is completely run by volunteers? From our conference chairs, treasurers, programming and registration to our marketers and even presenters! They all give of their time, energy, skills and commitment to Limmud.


During conference, we rely on our volunteers even more to support an incredible experience for our participants. We would love for you to join us as a volunteer this year!


If you are not able to volunteer, please consider donating to help us cover registration fees for those who are unable to afford our already subsidised prices. 



Subsidised Volunteer Registration for the Full Weekend


Our Young Adult and Youth Movement specials for participants between the ages of 18-30 years old are heavily subsidised by our generous donors. To qualify, participants are asked to volunteer for at least 4 hours during conference.


For Adult registration, you can qualify for a R500 discount if you volunteer for at least 4 hours during conference. Use discount code VOLUNTEER25 when selecting your tickets.


*Please note that the volunteer discount cannot be applied to already subsidised bookings (but can be claimed together with the Early Bird discount).

For security and registration purposes, a ticket needs to be issued for each participant who will be attending, regardless of age - even babies need their own tickets :)


When completing the registration form, each ticket should be in the participant's name with their contact information. Please do not duplicate participant details across your booking, as duplicate participant details will be cancelled. Thank you!
