Volunteer

Foundation for Peace accepts summer interns, short-term volunteers and long-term volunteers to work in the Dominican Republic. Service time vary from 3 months to a year or more. Many volunteers are individuals who have gone on an FFP mission trip and loved it so much they want to serve for a longer period of time.

In-country needs change and interns respond to these needs. Interns often help host American mission teams and support in-country staff. Sometimes they teach in local schools. DR interns live in the FFP house in Santo Domngo.
