Ignatian Volunteer Corps

The Ignatian Volunteer Corps? (IVC) provides men and women, most age 50 or better, opportunities to serve others and to transform lives. IVC matches the talents of experienced Volunteers with the greatest social needs of our time. IVC works in partnership with hundreds of community partner organizations. These nonprofit organizations provide Ignatian Volunteers with substantive work to serve individuals who have slipped through this country’s safety net. And hundreds of community organizations are on waiting lists to get an Ignatian Volunteer. Volunteers are strengthened in their Christian faith by IVC’s unique spiritual reflection program, which is rooted in the Jesuit tradition of Ignatian spirituality. By contributing their leadership skills and life experience into service, IVC volunteers improve their communities and create a more just society. Today, at 25 years old, IVC operates in 25 US cities and has over 650 service corps members working in over 325 organizations. Last year, IVC added three new cities – New Orleans, Albany, and Portland, ME --and we expect the number of cities and corps members to continue to grow.
