Mobilizing volunteers to
make a difference
EMI works through partnerships with local churches, Christain organizations,
and non-profits who are serving the poor and sharing the Gospel of Jesus
Christ. Recipient organizations provide two weeks of food, lodging and in-country
transportation for our teams, as well as the cost of one international airfare
for our staff project leader. The rest of the project costs (approximately
US$55,000) are covered by EMI, including salaries, travel, design costs,
and project overhead. By mobilizing volunteers to design the bulk of our
projects, we keep our overhead low and deliver cutting-edge designs that
are cost-effective, locally buildable, and meet the needs of our partners.
Request help.
EMI actively recruits volunteers from a growing network of over 4,500 design
professionals from around the world. These talented professionals find fulfillment
and satisfaction in using their God-given talents to make a difference in
the world. Our two-week long project trips are a life-changing experience.
