Become a recruitment partner

Join us in building a stronger, more diverse stem cell donor registry.

Our recruitment partners are passionate community members, university students and workplace champions who take action to help grow the registry by running swabbing events and promoting donor registration. Whether you’re a part of a student group, a large company, a sports club or a healthcare organisation, you can make a life-saving difference.

By becoming a recruitment partner, you can:

  • Run official swabbing events on behalf of Stem Cell Donors Australia
  • Help recruit new donors in high-impact settings like sporting clubs, universities or community hubs
  • Raise awareness of the urgent need for more volunteer stem cell donors
  • Build a movement of supporters within your own networks

Get accredited to run events

To protect our donors and ensure consistency, all recruitment partners must complete our short training to become Accredited Recruitment Supervisors. This means you’ll be able to:

  • Safely manage swabbing kits and consent forms
  • Represent the registry at public or internal events
  • Collect and submit donor registrations on our behalf

We provide the tools, training, swabs, and ongoing support. You bring the passion, energy and connection to your community.

Become a recruitment partner

As part of the recruitment volunteer application process, you’ll create an account through our volunteer platform, Volaby, where you’ll complete a few required steps and share some information about yourself.

From there, you’ll be invited to attend an introduction call to learn more about:

  • the different volunteering pathways available
  • the impact volunteers make as part of the Stem Cell Donors Australia community
  • what’s involved and expected of recruiter volunteers

We’re excited to welcome passionate people who want to help grow Australia’s stem cell donor registry and make a life-saving difference.
