What we'd like to talk about
We would like to talk about our current personnel structure and plans necessary to launch an internship placement platform.
Additional context
We operate with full time self supported faith missionary volunteers. Our business model may require a shift to sustain and support the Converge platform at ywamconverge.org
"Phone calls" are 1 hour, one-time calls with an organization. Learn the difference between volunteering on a Phone call and a Project here.

Our mission
We are a University Ministries Circle of YWAM International with a staff team of certified coordinators on five continents, hundreds of trained YWAM campus ministries staff, host partners, and volunteers.
Vision: To recapture the purpose of the university and proclaim the Gospel in every nation through every vocation.
Mission: To mobilize university students for the next and final wave of Global Missions and to foster student-led missions to and through every sphere of influence.
What we do
We cannot know God's calling until we know our story, especially the parts that hinder us. Jesus is calling us to engage our stories so we can engage our world.
We are developing missions-minded leaders for every sphere of influence. We facilitate opportunities for students to learn how to make a difference. Our target students are from ANYWHERE; they are ready to go into ALL the world, including EVERY area of influence. (Mt. 28:18-20).
Since 1989, we have coordinated internships for hundreds of students from over one hundred universities to nearly 50 countries to help start businesses and plant churches, install water pumps, establish therapy routines for disabled, perform research in clinics, develop nutritional plans for hospices, and create curriculum for schools. With Converge platform, we are preparing to connect, equip, and send over 300 interns per year.
Testimonials
Bekah is very professional, personable, and precise in her interviewing skills. She grasped our problem and walked me through decision-making, which I believe will help us.
John was a pleasure to talk to, he's got a passion for providing college students with internships around the world that help them connect their vocation to their faith in concrete, practical ways. I believe I helped him gain some clarity on important next steps for moving forward and look forward to hearing how things progress!
