Are you interested in getting involved with CIN but don't know how to? Scroll down to see all of the volunteer opportunities that you can take part in. There is everything from collecting spare change to serving a month on the mission field. Everybody can make a difference to impact children around the world.
Spare Change
Are you a part of an organized group (ie. youth group,
school, bible study, church, coworkers, mom’s group, college dormitory, etc.)?
If so, we have an easy yet impactful way your group or family can
collaboratively make a big difference. CLICK HERE for more information
about this program.
Host a Coffee & Conversations event
We are currently working on a short video, which tells the
story of Children’s Impact Network. When completed, we can send you
a DVD, a bag of Colombian coffee and some general CIN brochures. You simply
invite some friends into your home, make some desserts and share our video –
and your personal connection and commitment to our mission of impacting
children around the world. By introducing your friends to our ministry you help
us grow our family. Maybe they would like to sponsor a child, go on a mission
trip or simply make a donation to support our work.
Plan a Donation Drive
The Bolivia Life Center orphanage is continuously in need of
school supplies, basic first aid items, personal hygiene products, soccer
equipment, shoes and clothing. Contact Michelle Shott at michelle@cinonline.org to discuss
ideas of how you can bless our boys.
The Colombia Life Center also needs household items,
personal hygiene products, sewing materials and tools and other gifts of
encouragement and love. Contact Michelle Shott at michelle@cinonline.org if you’re
interested in helping bless the children and wives of martyred Christian
leaders, in their time of distress, by collecting gift items.

Donations in lieu of Gifts
Birthdays and other special holidays are the perfect time to
include others in your philanthropic passions. Many of our friends, both young
and old, have asked people to give donations to Children’s Impact Network
instead of gifts for themselves. What an amazing way to use your special day to
bless others in need!
Sponsorships
Do you know someone that would be interested in sponsoring a
child? Currently, all of our
sponsors are people who have traveled to one of our mission sites or know
someone who has. You can be an ambassador for children in need. CLICK HEREfor
more information about children in need of a sponsor.
Summer Host (position is abroad: on the missions field)
Each summer, young adults spend their summer (minimum one
month commitment) at one of our mission sites. Hosts serve and love on children
in need, as well as our summer mission teams. CLICK HERE for more
information.

CIN has signed up with MissionFish, a part of eBay. You can sell any item and pick CIN
from the nonprofit list when creating your listing. Then, you can set a percentage to be shared with CIN
for each sale. Once the item is listed, bidding begins on eBay. When the
item sells, you get paid by the buyer and ship the item - same
as always. missionFish collects the donation from the seller, pays the
nonprofit and provides a tax receipt. The listing fees are also pro-rated based on the percentage you donate to a charity.
