Be part of the change – volunteer!
Merit America is always excited to grow our volunteer pool. Our volunteers are committed to mentoring learners in professional development to instill confidence for their new career paths.
Give one hour. Help change a career.
Working adults are building new careers in tech — many while raising kids, holding down full-time jobs, and chasing every spare hour they can find. Volunteers like you give them something money can’t buy: real-world insight, an interview rep, a moment of confidence before the moment that matters.
Volunteering with us isn’t just about skill assessment. It’s leadership development for your team, a tangible way to meet your company’s corporate responsibility goals, and a small action that pays forward into a more inclusive workforce.
Four reasons your hour moves the needle
Virtual sessions put you face-to-face with the working adults you’re helping — no abstract donations, no distance.
Mentoring builds leadership skills, public-speaking practice, and feedback muscle for the volunteers themselves.
Volunteer hours support corporate responsibility commitments and ESG reporting in a measurable way.
Help open doors for adults whose talent has been overlooked by traditional hiring — based on merit, not money.
Two ways to jump in
All opportunities are virtual and designed to fit a busy professional’s schedule.
