We are currently seeking dedicated volunteers to help power our mission and expand our reach—primarily through flexible, online roles and specialist projects.

While our annual summer camp is fully staffed, the dedication and skill of volunteers from around the world remain critical to our success. Over the years, our team has been enriched by people from Australia, Canada, France, Holland, Italy, Spain, Palestine, the United Kingdom, Syria, Iraq, and Greece. This diversity ensures we approach our work with cultural appreciation and respect.

Crete For Life’s local projects and our environmental initiatives, are managed by dedicated local Cretan teachers, mothers, and professionals who donate their time and energy.

Now, we need your help to grow our impact further.
