volunteering with fws because

I want to make the world a better place. No really, I mean it! Growing up in Australia has offered me fantastic opportunities and I figure the time has come to use my training and resources to give something back. Now that I’ve started I’m addicted, and the more I learn about fws the more proud I am to be a part of it.
