VOLUNTEER

Meet a heart. Save a heart.

Our volunteer opportunities provide a
behind-the-scenes look into the
Save a Child's Heart Children’s Home
.

We are now accepting volunteers and interns. At this time, there are no live-in options at the Children's Home.

Volunteers are crucial for providing care and emotional support to the kids and their families during their stay in Israel, pre- and post-procedure. Volunteers are responsible for organizing games and activities for the children, as well as acting as a friend and a familiar face.

In addition, volunteers are exposed to many different cultures, languages, and customs while at the Children’s Home, making this a uniquely special experience.

All volunteers also take part in our #EndlessLev fundraising initiative, where they have the chance to share their experience and become ambassadors for Save a Child’s Heart.

Any volunteer applicants must have completed high school or be over 17 years old.

Scholarship Awards are available for Canadian interns. For more information, click
