Volunteer

EDV volunteers can either work from home or volunteer in a disaster zone. No matter which option you choose you’ll be an essential part of our sustainable disaster recovery projects and you won't be asked to pay any form of registration or participation fee.

The only expenses you should expect to incur are your travel and living costs if you decide to volunteer in Haiti, but we’ll do all we can to keep those costs as low as possible.

We are currently on deployment in Haiti, and we recently started registering volunteers. If you're interested in joining us in Haiti, you can learn more here.

Volunteer from Home

Keeping EDV running is a full time job. While volunteers and volunteer leaders are working hard on the ground in disaster zones worldwide, volunteers at home are busy developing new resources, pursuing funding opportunities, refining our existing systems and technology, and providing support to keep deployments half a world away running smoothly.

If you volunteer at home, your job could be as simple as sending emails or as complex as planning full scale fundraising events. Your level of involvement will be determined by your experience, skills, and how much time you can commit.

To get started volunteering from home have a look at our current needs list and register. Even if you don’t see a job that fits your skills, it’s still worth registering. We’ll get in touch with you if a job comes up that’s suited to your skill set.

If you have specific questions about volunteering from home that haven’t been answered here check out our general volunteer FAQ. If that doesn’t give you the information you need, contact us.
