Everyone is welcome to join Results as a volunteer regardless of how much experience you may have in advocacy or global health. Results will provide you with best-in-class advocacy training paired with coaching and support so that you can raise your voice and take action.
We are committed to diversity and equity around the globe and in our workplace. We welcome all volunteer applications, most especially from women, Aboriginal persons, persons with disabilities, ethnic minorities, persons of minority sexual orientation or gender identity, visible minorities, and others who may contribute to diversification that share our values.
First, you’ll need to watch an info session to learn what it means to volunteer with Results. You will learn what happens month-to-month, why our campaigns and actions are strategic, and what resources we provide for you. Get started by signing up below:
You will select which local group you want to join, and then we will introduce you via email. Your group leader(s) will invite you to their next monthly E&A meeting where you will meet other like-minded volunteers in your group. From then on, your group leader is your first point of contact to answer questions about taking action and participating in Results activities.
That’s it! You’re now officially a volunteer!
build the movement
When it comes to recruiting volunteers to join our movement to end extreme poverty, there is nothing like word of mouth – especially coming from someone who already volunteers with us! Think about the people in your network and let them know how to get involved: you can use these images on social media, invite folks to a barbeque, or attend a local activity. Have fun and be creative as it’s your opportunity to showcase what you care about as a volunteer. Make sure to tell people to visit our join us page and to click the sign up to volunteer button.
take a leadership role
There are several volunteer leadership roles that take your volunteer experience with Results to another level. You will learn how to be a good facilitator, how to motivate others, and how to be a responsible leader people can depend on.
The first step is joining an info session to find out what it means to volunteer with Results. Then you will be given the opportunity to apply for a leadership position, such as group leaders who start and/or support a local group. Interviews will be held with interested candidates for vacant positions.
