Volunteer for a non-profit organization.

What is a non-profit organization?

Non-profit entities are part of the so-called Third Sector. Bodies and organizations that qualify as nonprofit are subjects characterized by a series of common elements such as:

• the pursuit of socially relevant and public utility purposes;
• lack of profit and distribution of profits;
• private nature;
• use of all resources to achieve one’s goal.
• They are organizations that combine the absence of profit with an altruistic intent and that dedicate themselves to socially useful and relevant activities in various sectors such as cultural, research, education, assistance, health, environmental.

Non-profit entities can be structured in different legal forms, such as:

• recognized associations

• foundations
• committees
• voluntary organizations
• social cooperatives
• non-governmental organizations
• social promotion associations

From a fiscal point of view, non-profit entities can take one of the following tax qualifications:

How does this page work?

Click on the announcements that interest you the most. Check the date of the publication (some opportunities might be already expired). If the announcement is still valid, look for the ‘contact details‘ section🔍📧. It is usually at the end of the project description. In that section, you can find free ways to get in touch with the hosting organization (website, e-mail, phone numbers, application form). Send the host a message and wait for a reply.

Note❗

You may not always receive an answer from the hosting organization. Candidates letters are often too many, so the volunteer coordinators won’t always be able to reply to all of the volunteers’ messages. Read more on our FAQ section.
