At Volunteers4Cause, our mission is simple: to connect volunteers with opportunities to serve in their local communities. We believe that everyone has something to offer, and that volunteering is a powerful way to make a positive impact on the world around us. Volunteers4Cause is a project of the WorldMerit Organization. We started with our pilot project known as Volunteers4COVAX which brought together over 2,000 volunteers from more than 50 + countries to work in local committee groups to lower the rate of people contracting COVID-19 during the height of the COVID-19 global pandemic.

We were able to empower these volunteers with the right tools and training in order to create local groups within their communities, cities, and countries to bring timely interventions in combating COVID-19. We partnered with UNICEF and through the support of our Global Advisory Team, we were able to deploy innovative strategies that led to COVID-19 reduction globally. As the global pandemic eased up, the Volunteers4COVAX Global Advisory Team made the wise decision to continue to utilize and expand this global volunteer network to tackle other social impact issues around the world. With this in mind, Volunteers4COVAX rebranded to Volunteers4Cause while still using the acronym, V4C. With this expanded mission, the “C” in V4C can stand for whatever cause our volunteers are tackling!
