About E-Volunteering

The E-Volunteer programme of Cuso International welcomes new and returning volunteers to work with our international programme partners and volunteers remotely. E-Volunteering offers many of the benefits gained from international volunteering, while having the added advantage of fitting into a regular weekly schedule without the need for a passport. Contributing and giving back to a community, acquiring new skills and making new connections are common benefits of E-Volunteering and for Cuso International it is a great opportunity to involve more people in its mission.

E-volunteers are expected to supply their own basic home office equipment, Internet and have a moderate knowledge of computer technology. Some of our partners are in remote areas with an unreliable Internet connection. In addition, for some of our partners, this is their first experience working with e-volunteers, so flexibility and patience are a valuable characteristic of e-volunteers.
