Become a Compassion Headquarters Volunteer
When you volunteer with Compassion, you become part of a mission and team that reaches children across the globe with hope, care, and opportunity. Your unique skills, interests, and abilities can make a real difference—whether you're organizing materials, supporting operations, or lending your talents behind the scenes.
You choose how and where you serve: from the comfort of your home or at our Colorado Springs Headquarters. Whether you have just 4 hours a week or up to 15, your time helps transform lives and bring joy to children in need.
Join us—and be the reason a child’s story changes for the better.
Volunteer Opportunities to Serve
GMC On-Site Volunteer: Compassion-assisted children and their sponsors exchange more than four million letters a year. This happens on-site at our Global Ministry Center and often produces special projects and campaign mailings that we need help getting out the door. If you're interested in this type of work, please apply for the GMC On-Site Volunteer role. This role is based in Colorado Springs and is only open to local volunteers.
Data Work and Internet Research Volunteer: Data is an invaluable mission necessity, and we’re seeking to make data-driven choices. If data work and internet research are for you and you wish to join our remote or on-site efforts, please apply for the GMC On-Site or GMC Remote volunteer role.
