We need volunteers to help raise awareness about Mary's Meals and fundraise for our work. As a Community Volunteer you will grow our movement by motivating and inspiring your local community to support our work.
We need people who are passionate about ending child hunger and ensuring that every child receives a daily meal in a place of education. We have a range of activities that can be done from the comfort of your home that include: hosting virtual talks, spreading the word about our work on social media or holding screenings of our inspiring videos with family and friends.
