Dream Corps is "one of the first of its kind in the U.S. academy, an academic activism at its best."

— Professor Ralph Litzinger, Director of Asian/Pacific Studies Institute of Duke University



Become a Volunteer

Each summer, Dream Corps sends teams of volunteers from overseas and China to help implement its projects at the program sites. At the beginning of the Summer Volunteer Program, volunteers will participate in a four-days training in Beijing. During the training, volunteers will break into six teams. Each team will then travel to their program sites to work about three weeks. After the work is completed, volunteers will return to Beijing to share their experiences with other volunteers at the Annual Forum. Click here to see our previous volunteers.

Why should I volunteer

Do you believe the world can be a better place? Do you want to play an active role in making the world a more equitable place? Do you want to work with a talented and dedicated team of people? Do you aspire to learn more about rural and urban China, including its current problems and issues, as well its deep culture and beautiful language? If your answer yes to all of the above questions, then yu should join the Dream Team!

Who can volunteer

This program is an exciting opportunity for students, researchers, and young professionals interested in international development, rural education, and the non-profit sector in China. Although spoken Chinese is not strictly required, we prioritize volunteers with superior spoken (Mandarin) Chinese upon selection. Previously, our volunteers are mainly undergraduate and graduate students from the US, Canada and China.

How to become a volunteer

Recruitment begins each year starting at the end of January. Please be sure check our website for details and the online application form.
