VolunteerMatch
Connecting people with volunteer opportunities to build a better world
VolunteerMatch is a volunteer recruitment platform that connects individuals with nonprofit and social-impact opportunities. After 30 years of operation, it merged with Idealist in early 2025 to form a larger combined organization. Together, they help people find jobs, volunteer roles, and community-driven projects worldwide.
The platform lists volunteer and social-impact opportunities from nonprofits and organizations, allowing users to search and connect with causes that match their interests and location.
