Volunteer with DRS

For over 50 years, World Renew’s Disaster Response Services (DRS) program has lived out God’s love and shared hope with disaster-impacted communities in North America through a holistic approach to disaster response. We welcome you to join an incredible team of staff, donors, and volunteers devoted to being the hands and feet of Jesus through home reconstruction and unmet needs assessments. Come see how each volunteer hour spent on site creates sustainable change.
