Volunteer
Volunteers are vital to the work of Mercy Ships and we welcome those who would like to serve the world's poorest people by providing their skills. Apply as a volunteer on the Mercy Ship, support office, or raise funds and awareness for Mercy Ships in your local community.
There are over 400 staff on board the ship; many of the positions available are for medical professionals, but over half of the opportunities onboard are in non-medical roles. Whatever your skills, experience and availability there's something for you.
• Short and long term opportunities are available to serve onboard the ship in West Africa. More info about volunteering for a position on the Africa Mercy
• Part-time opportunities to volunteer without leaving home, supporting our work by raising the profile of Mercy Ships within New Zealand. More info about volunteering for a position in New Zealand
• Join up with a short term team serving on location in our West African host nation, alongside the Africa Mercy. More info about volunteering for a position on a Mercy Team
