Volunteering starts by joining our volunteer network. You’ll tell us a little about your background, interests, and skills. You’ll tell us a little about your background, interests and skills so we can get to know you and understand the kinds of opportunities you might be interested in.

Once you sign up, you’ll be invited to attend one of our monthly introduction calls, where we tell you about the history of Chayn and what it’s like to volunteer with us. You'll get to ask any questions and we'll get to know you a bit better.

After that, we’ll keep you informed when specific volunteer opportunities come up. These might be long-term roles on a team, short- or long-term projects, or one-off pieces of work. We may also contact you directly if an opportunity seems particularly relevant to the skills or interests you shared when you joined.

When you see a volunteer opportunity you’re interested in, you’ll tell us a bit about why you think you’d be a great fit for that opportunity. If it seems like a good match, we’ll contact you for a short interview and discussion!

For long-term team roles, we ask for a commitment of 8–16 hours per month, with a minimum of 6 months. The others will depend on the opportunity and need. Communication is mainly asynchronous, supplemented by collaboration calls, workshops, and planning sessions. Volunteers can take breaks as needed, with the option to rejoin or stay connected as part of the network!

You can join our volunteer network at any point. Join us today to make an impact, connect with like-minded individuals, and achieve meaningful goals together:
