Current Volunteer Opportunities     

Volunteering in disaster-affected communities is a powerful way to help our neighbors recover and bring hope in the midst of struggle. We have seen Disciples make the greatest impact by volunteering where recovery efforts are ongoing, once the community has had a chance to identify their unmet needs and get organized. While there is often an abundance of donations and volunteers in the first days and weeks following a disaster, there is great need of willing hands for months and years as communities rebuild. Week of Compassion works to support local congregations to provide relief in the early days and to coordinate resources and volunteers from across the church for long-term recovery.
