About LINGOs > Volunteer Program
 

If you're driven by a passion to truly make a difference, to create a lasting positive impact on the lives of others, if you're hungry to challenge your skills, roll up your sleeves and collaborate with dynamic, compassionate people as they work on some of the most pressing global humanitarian issues of the day, then LINGOs is where you want to be!

LINGOs needs experienced, committed professionals interested in giving back some of their time and talents to support our international NGO membership.

Volunteer opportunities exist in a host of areas including helping LINGOs members utilize LINGOs learning tools (such as Articulate, Elluminate and Outstart Trainer); formulate learning strategies; deliver virtual classes; design and develop elearning courses; teach virtual language courses and much more. Your professional experience in all aspects of elearning (asynchronous and synchronous), training & facilitation, LMS technology & process, Project Management, language training and management and leadership training is in demand. We need you!

In return, you can expect to reap multiple rewards from your LINGOs volunteer experience including:
  • Honing your professional skills and learning new skills that can seamlessly transfer to your full-time job

  • The opportunity to work virtually on all volunteer projects - we have volunteers from around the globe who work with our member organizations!

  • Learning more about the iNGO world and connecting to others who share your interest in international humanitarian development

  • Becoming an integral part of a vibrant community of LINGOs volunteers

  • Networking with industry colleagues and connecting with dynamic practitioners in the elearning and iNGO community

  • Experiencing a strong, meaningful connection to the work you are doing

  • Most significantly, making a lasting impact on the life of others

Interested in volunteering with us? There are two easy ways to begin! Go to the Volunteer Community page, download and complete the Volunteer Information Form found at the right and send to Laura Levy, LINGOs Volunteer Program Coordinator or simply contact Laura directly. 

We also invite you to explore our Volunteer Community page to review current volunteer opportunities.

For additional information on the LINGOs Volunteer Program, please review our FAQs (coming soon!)

LINGOs could not do what we do without our volunteers.  THANK YOU!

 Working with LINGOs agencies has given me insight into how agencies solve problems with limited resources. I've had to "think smarter" in lots of ways. This has really helped me develop my own skill set!
