Who we are

With Nukoko’s primary mandate to engage youth in Canada to help youth around the world, we are staffed by a vibrant and dynamic team of young volunteers, all committed to promoting the same goal: universal primary education as a means to ending world poverty.

Because we believe that young people can make a difference, our volunteers don’t spend time stuffing envelopes and cold-calling. Instead, they join our team as project leaders and content owners. Our volunteers have the opportunity to manage a project, build self-confidence and hone workplace skills. Most importantly, volunteers have the opportunity to work with a team that makes a difference.

If you are interested in volunteering with Nukoko, please contact us at volunteer@nukoko.org.
