Prerequisite: Completion of a YWAM DTS
Your job as a volunteer will be assigned according to the needs of the campus at the time you arrive. We strive to place you in your area of expertise and interest, however that may not always be possible. Here are some possible areas of service:
We allow volunteers to stay from 1-3 months. Our program is designed to help you seek direction for what comes next. If you’re interested in staying longer we suggest taking one of our training courses or applying to come on staff!
For full time volunteers who are here 1-3 months it’s only $275 per person per month! This amount covers your housing and food costs. If you have someone accompanying you who will not be volunteering the cost for them would be $275 per month.
Housing for volunteers is in a shared, dorm-like environment. Singles share housing with 2-4 other people and you may share a bathroom with 4-10 people. You will need to bring your own bedding, towels, toiletries, etc.
Our optional breakfast starts at 7am, the required campus activities begin around 8:30am, you will be given about an hour for lunch, and then work finishes around 5pm Monday through Friday. Weekends are free for resting, exploring, and attending the church of your choice. A typical schedule looks like:
Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Weekends | |
8:30-9:30 | Worship / Prayer | Staff Meeting | Base Bible | Work starts at 9 | Work starts at 9 | Free! |
9:45 | Work | Work | Work | Work | Work | |
12:30 | Lunch | Lunch | Lunch | Lunch | Lunch | |
1:30 | Work | Work | Work | Work | Work | |
5:15 | Dinner | Dinner | Dinner | Dinner | Dinner | |
7pm | Free | Community Night | Free | Free | Free |
You can start at this step any time! We'll collect some personal information from you (i.e. where you're from, your birthday, education/work background, etc.) We'll also ask some get to know you questions and hear more from you about your heart behind applying. It only takes 10-15 minutes to apply!
Volunteer applicants must have a mentor or YWAM leader submit a character reference on their behalf. You will specify the name and email of this person in your application form and we will automatically send them the form through email! Your part in this step is to let this person know what's up!
Once you have have submitted your online application and we have received your character reference, we'll review your application, run a background check, and work on your placement. Then connect with you ASAP with details on your acceptance.
Upon acceptance, our personnel department will connect with you personally to make sure you're ready to come!
If you have questions, please contact our volunteers department directly.
