About Volunteering

If you’re looking to volunteer with a thriving grassroots organization for a cause you can really believe in, look no further!

Itgel is a fully volunteer-supported organization, which means we rely wholly on enthusiastic, unpaid individuals to meet our staffing needs. There are many ways in which volunteers can assist The Itgel Foundation including clerical support, organizational development, and perhaps the most alluring…serving as a field volunteer in Mongolia. Because our staff is dispersed throughout the world, many of our activities occur virtually with the help of e-mail, phone, and fax. That means you can live anywhere in the world and still get involved! Volunteer for a day or a year, everything helps!

Benefits of Volunteering:

  • Academic or internship credit
  • Publication potential
  • Valuable learning experiences
  • Letters of recommendation
  • Opportunities for personal grant support
  • Travel opportunities
UPDATE
