- VOLUNTEER — A Solution to Every Problem. Join the movement to make health care accessible for everyone.
- Helping our fellow men and women has long been seen as an altruistic behavioral model. Volunteering improves the health, happiness, (and in some cases) the longevity of volunteers.
- Children who volunteer are more likely to grow up to be adults who volunteer.
- Even unwilling children who are forced to volunteer fare better than kids who don’t volunteer.
- In a virtuous circle, communities with lots of volunteers are more stable and better places to live, which in turn further boosts volunteerism.
- People volunteer for a wide variety of reasons, especially wanting to help others.
- There is a long tradition of seeing volunteering as a form of charity, based on altruism and selflessness.
- The best volunteering does involve the desire to serve others.
- Today, you may be the person with the ability to help, but tomorrow you may be the recipient of someone else’s volunteer effort.
- Your effort to the work of others makes everyone’s lives better. Please pick a project!
- If you would like to become a Volunteer, please contact us at [email protected]

- Mentoring Students and Mentoring Schools
- Provide emotional and social mentoring.
- Assist students with secondary course and co-curricular selection.
- Coach students to enhance their leadership, communication, and self-advocacy skills.
- Support current and future academic activities.
- Emergency Crisis
- Our goal is to reduce suffering and save lives in regions affected by natural disasters, disease outbreaks, and complex emergencies.
- Rapid-onset emergencies. To address high-impact disasters, including disease outbreaks. Within 24 to 72 hours, we deploy to disaster zones, local, national, globally to respond effectively. We aim to help provide families with immediate shelter, food, water, sanitation, medical care and supplies.
- Complex emergencies. Many emergencies in this category include an element of violent conflict and involve political and military forces and disruption of national systems, while others have roots in natural phenomena. We aim to provide food, water, sanitation and hygiene, healthcare, and shelter—in the acute phases of complex emergencies, such as during peaks in violence or displacement. In late 2013, for example, we responded through volunteers to the humanitarian crisis in the Central African Republic, where civil conflict has led to population displacement, civilian deaths, and gender-based violence.
- Slow-onset emergencies. Drought and famine are among the slow-onset emergencies that we work with our partners to address. Efforts include programs to build stability in communities through approaches such as improved agricultural practices that can help people remain productive in the face of future droughts.
- Emergencies occur nearly every day and impact thousands of communities. Many of these are poorly publicized and receive little public attention. If you would like to support relief efforts, lead and support organizations actively working to help affected areas, please pick a project.
