We all want to make a difference in the world. It’s part of how we are designed. At World Relief, we believe making a difference is a two-way street. Over the past 40+ years, we’ve been guiding people like you to volunteering in ways that make a lasting impact. You can bring your gifts, abilities and interests, and World Relief will help you connect and walk alongside families and individuals as they rebuild their lives in communities across the U.S.

We are so excited to partner with you as you grow, learn, and make a difference through volunteering.

I like volunteering because I have met new people, learned many new things, eaten new foods, and learned about the culture of Afghans.
