AS A VOLUNTEER

What kind of volunteering? 

Discover three ways of bringing your passion, experience and aspirations to L’Arche:

1

Board of directors

Bring your experience in governance, organisational development and inclusion by joining a local or national board of directors.

2

Fundraising

Bring your know-how in fundraising, by reaching out to people and inviting them to support L’Arche whether locally or nationally.

3

Mentoring

Bring your passion and expertise in nurturing individuals to grow personally, professionally and/ or spiritually by providing one-to-one support or coaching for groups.

 

What to expect?

  • A trustworthy channel to bring about your dream for a more human society.
  • The chance to collaborate with a wide variety of other partners in our shared mission. Typically, volunteers describe their involvement with L’Arche as: ‘inspiring’, ‘challenging’, ‘horizon-expanding’ and ‘fun.’
  • Opportunities to join in community activities such as celebrations and birthdays.
  • A clearly defined role as a volunteer, with built-in reviews, in dialogue with the local community or national office. 
  • L'Arche attracts a –perhaps surprisingly – diverse range of people, faiths, philosophies and ‘seekers’; you can expect full respect for your own outlook on life as well as many openings to explore the rich spirituality of other members of L’Arche.
