  Becoming a Volunteer

  Start by completing the online application available via the link below. CMMB staff will review your application and schedule a personal interview if your background and skill set meet our needs. If accepted, all international volunteers also participate in a three-day pre-departure orientation in New York City.

  Benefits of Volunteering

  Each international volunteer who serves six months or longer in the field receives a round-trip ticket to their placement site, housing, a monthly stipend, insurance coverage, storytelling and fundraising training, and the opportunity to contribute to vital community development initiatives for under-served populations while building a longstanding legacy for the community.

  Financial Contribution

  A financial contribution is required. In addition to covering all travel costs, all volunteers contribute or raise $5,000 to help offset the cost of their trip; a minimum of $3,500 prior to departure and the remaining $1,500 can be raised while in the field.
