We are passionate about connecting people in ways that fit their life or professional interests. Constantly, our volunteers are dreaming of new ways to integrate people of all walks of life and ages. From kids teaching their friends about Africa to college students throwing a coffeehouse fundraiser to a women's Bible study praying for our projects, there are endless ways for you to help fulfill our mission.

Feel free to dive in and start spreading the word about Forgotten Voices! If you come up with some good ideas, act on them and then tell us what they were so we can help share your work with others!
