Volunteer
Time is precious, so make yours count with MCAI. As a volunteer, your gift of time, skills and experience will extend MCAI's capacity to overcome poverty and suffering. It is MCAI's aim that volunteers gain satisfaction from their time volunteering and that the relationship is one of mutual benefit.
Why do people volunteer for MCAI?
Apart from wanting to work with others to overcome poverty and suffering, people are inspired and motivated to work for MCAI for different reasons:
- Students - as part of your course placement or work experience
- Between jobs - a couple of months to spare before starting a new job
- Retirement - making good use of years of expertise
- Special interest/skill - which can make a valuable contribution to MCAI's work
- Spare time - a few hours a week to get involved in something different and rewarding
Whatever your reason is, we would love to hear from you!
You could also help by volunteering for a longer time with a MCAI internship.
What is a voluntary internship with MCAI?
Interns are volunteers with clearly defined roles, which are predominantly fundraising based.
Interns tend to be recruited for a specific period of time of 3, 6 or 12 months. We expect interns to volunteer for between 2-4 days per week.
When does MCAI recruit for interns?
MCAI recruits for interns throughout the year depending on our fundraising or programme requirements.
