Volunteer Opportunity
We recently heard about an exciting opportunity to change a life without leaving home. ENGin, a US/Ukraine-based nonprofit, urgently needs volunteers to practice English online with Ukrainian youth.
Volunteering with ENGin is a unique, flexible opportunity to connect 1-on-1 with a Ukrainian in need and help them break the language barrier. ENGin provides all training and materials.
