Volunteering with CoDev is an excellent way to donate your time and show your support for global justice.  Our committed volunteers contribute to CoDev through:

  • General office support
  • Assisting with communications and fundraising
  • Translation and interpretation (occasional)
  • Professional services: computer technical, legal, financial, communications, fundraising
  • Outreach at events and conferences
  • Event planning
  • Café Ético volunteering – preparing/delivering coffee orders; outreach to promote fair trade


Please note that CoDev does not place volunteers overseas.  CCIC has a great list on their site of organizations that do.
