Opportunities for young adults to serve and gain life enhancing experiences

The Cardoner Network is a not-for-profit, Young Adult-focused hub for volunteering, founded in 2010. We seek to engage Young Adults in a conscientious community with shared values, where genuine friendships are made. The Pillars of the Project provide opportunities to come together to grow, learn to question, and contribute in different ways. We seek to embed in Young Adults an understanding and respect for all and provide opportunities of service both locally and abroad.

The Cardoner Network’s Two Wolves Abroad programmes offer young adults opportunities to commit to  short and long-term volunteer placements with our partner communities beyond their familiar territory.

These include our Nepal immersions and long-term in-community CVC placements to Nepal, the Northern Territory, Thailand, Micronesia and more.

Bellarmine House is our community residence for young adults pursuing tertiary studies. The House is ideally located at Broadway; next to USyd, UTS and Notre Dame.  

Bellarmine is not only an affordable choice but a community that thrives on Crafting Connections, Cultivating Faith, and Creating Impact.
