Community & Mission

The two pillars of dominican volunteering.

The volunteer is hosted by a Dominican Community with a referent
brother or sister.

Generally, women are sent to sisters’ communities, while men are sent to
brothers’.

Each volunteer gets a mission linked to his or her skills.

Everything is possible : teaching, pastoral work, animation, engineering, communication, health,…

Lay men and women aged from 20 to 30.
Students, new graduates or young professionals.
Length of the mission : 6 months or 1 year
Currently, 12 volunteers are serving in 9 countries
140 volunteers have served in the places of mission since 2015.

  • Dom&Go recruits and trains the volunteer.
