Volunteer with us
You have the power to touch people’s lives and make a real difference to the human community. By joining our team you will make part of a community of givers. At the same time sharpen your skills and get real on-the-ground experience.
We select volunteers based on one criterion: our ability to support and develop them at a given time and in retrospect their ability to be useful by filling gaps in our operations. Our volunteer recruiting process is therefore similar to that of recruiting staff, as we consider volunteers an integral part of our community.

We have roles that suit everyone, whether you can work for a few hours or a few days a week.
Once you have submitted your application, you will receive a confirmation email that your application has been received (here to generate an automatic reply email).
