YOUR TIME IS YOUR MOST VALUABLE GIFT...

If you’ve got some spare time and you’d like to use it to help Article18, then we need you!

A team of volunteers supports Article18. Thanks to technology, opportunities to volunteer are numerous. Whether you’d like to volunteer in our office or become a rep in your church, or even carry out the task from home, your time and talents are incredibly valuable to us.

As an Article18 volunteer, you’ll be part of a small, friendly team in an internationally respected human-rights NGO. You’ll be helping us to make a real difference in the lives of people who suffer because of their Christian faith and activities.

These projects include relieving distress following arrest or detention, supplying basic needs, helping converts and victims of violence, sponsoring education and small businesses, providing Christian training and resources for improved persecution-preparedness. We want to share these needs with as many people as possible – but we can’t do it alone. We need your help!

If you share our passion for serving persecuted Christians and have the time and desire to help others understand their plight, then we invite you to apply to become a voluntary Partner.

CURRENT VOLUNTEERING OPPORTUNITIES

You could be involved in researching and writing in the London office, or even be the face of the organisation by helping out at an event.  Every single one of these tasks is absolutely essential to our work – so be in no doubt that your time at Article18 will make a tangible difference to helping those suffering for their faith!
