About Us

Volunteer Alliance is an organic volunteer movement. We provide a new way to volunteer and connect with communities in developing countries.

We have created a revolutionary and innovative approach to international volunteering that removes barriers to collaboration while empowering community based organizations in the developing world to be agents of their own change.

 

Our Vision: We envision a worldwide culture of service.

We envision an international community of individuals and organizations committed to volunteerism, cultural exchange, economic sustainability, and innovation. We strive to help create empowered non-profits, volunteers, and placement organizations with the tools to create, maintain, and constantly improve and promote the causes they care about.

 

Our Values:

Accountability: We believe that development is about human freedom--to choose, to act, and to live with our human rights protected. In order to do this, we must be accountable to others, and to ourselves. We create sustainable volunteer relationships through a system of transparency, honesty, and mutual respect.

Community: We live in an increasingly interdependent world. By recognizing and forging connections between people of all cultures we raise awareness of the human bond.

Neutrality: At Volunteer Alliance we are not idolatrous about or bound to any doctrine, theory, or ideology regarding international development. We believe that all systems of thought are guiding means, not absolute truth.

Reciprocity: At Volunteer Alliance, we believe you get what you give. Share the love.

Transparency: At Volunteer Alliance, we like to put everything on the table and let the community make educated decisions. We’re always open to and welcome feedback and suggestions.
