Volunteer

As a humanitarian organization of the Catholic Church, Caritas Penang engages volunteers from diverse backgrounds to support our vital programs. Depending on your skills and preferences, you can choose to teach children, attend to the sick, care for the elderly, feed the hungry, train the poor, or help build infrastructure for disaster-affected communities.

Volunteer with us

In compliance with Malaysian law, Caritas Penang can only accept volunteers who are 18 years of age and older. We invite you to step out and explore the world by serving others, growing in spirituality, and experiencing the fullness of your humanity with us. Sign up as a volunteer today and become a beacon of hope in our society.

Training and Safeguarding

All selected volunteers undergo mandatory safeguarding training. This is a crucial requirement for anyone serving in our humanitarian outreaches, ensuring that we actively protect children and vulnerable adults and strictly adhere to the principle of “do no harm.” Additionally, certain roles—such as clinical or specialized care—may require volunteers to complete further formation before beginning their service.
