Volunteering

Make A Difference On Your Own Time...Help The HIV Orphans Of Africa Today!
Virtual Volunteering
 
By joining our virtual team, you can contribute your many talents in a more flexible way.  Time and location are no longer restrictions that prevent concerned world citizens from making an impact.  Our volunteers can contribute after dinner from their own homes, during a short lunch break from the office, whenever and wherever it is convenient!  In this way we hope to recruit the many different skills of diverse individuals and combine them to battle this HIV/AIDS epidemic.
 
How can you help?
 
Any little thing that you have to contribute can make a difference.  Whether you’re an accountant, web page designer, photographer or consultant looking to develop your professional skills, or just someone with a big heart, you have something that can help our team. Live in Seattle? We often have opportunities in the community at our special events as well.
             
Our volunteers are spread across the globe in different countries and numerous cities. If you would like to be part of the growing movement, please complete our volunteer application and email us to be part of a growing group that is making a difference in the lives of HIV orphans in Africa!
