Volunteer with Us

Volunteers engage in a wide variety of work, depending on their skills and interests.

Canadian Lutheran World Relief offers several ways for Canadians to get involved directly with our work. Volunteer opportunities cover a broad range of programs and needs, and can take place from your home or church, from one of our offices or even overseas.

Overseas with CLWR's International Volunteer Service

Through its International Volunteer Service CLWR facilitates a limited number of volunteer placements overseas for periods of six months to two years. Volunteer interests and abilities are matched with requests from partner organizations on a case-by-case basis.
