why VOLUNTEER with we are ill?
Volunteers in action
Volunteers are part of how We Are ILL operates, grows, and sustains impact year-round.
We are building a structured Volunteer Support System designed to strengthen patient access, expand partnerships, and deepen community engagement. This is not one-time event support — it is ongoing, purpose-built engagement aligned with organizational goals.
