Mercy Volunteers promote social change by working as teachers, aides, campus ministers, and program coordinators in communities experiencing injustice. Volunteers compassionately serve in full-time roles at elementary schools, high schools, and outreach programs throughout the United States and South America. Opportunities are available for licensed teachers and individuals who do not have a license but are interested in working with children.
Mercy Volunteer Corps supports the professional development and goals of our volunteers with on-site mentors who ensure that the volunteers are gaining professional experience and skills. After serving, volunteers will go on to graduate school, full-time positions, and some are even offered permanent positions at their service sites. Check out the available graduate school discounts for Mercy Volunteer Corps alumni!
All Mercy Volunteers are provided with housing, transportation, monthly stipends, quarterly retreats, and more! Volunteers live together in community with a commitment to social justice, spiritual growth, and a simple and sustainable lifestyle.
