What We Do
GoCorps works to make two years of global missional service a normalized, accessible next step to Christian students and young professionals of all majors and backgrounds. We place motivated recent grads to use their degree alongside long-term projects sharing the hope of Christ and addressing physical needs.
3.14 billion people are "unreached" by the gospel
65% of the world live in religiously restricted areas
1.45 billion people in the world live in poverty
The Opportunity
God is already at work. And we see new ways to join him.
Skill-Based Placements
Traditional missionaries with Bible degrees often have difficulty acquiring visas in regions with the least access to the gospel. A more strategic method is placing people with practical skills and applied degrees–in medicine, engineering, business, job creation, IT, education, social work, and more–to serve in gospel roles.
Two-Year Placements
We believe in the strategy of two-year placements. We consider it the sweet spot for most grads, between the open-ended commitment of long-term service and the limited influence of short-term trips. Two years is long enough to meaningfully engage in a culture and become conversational in the local language, both key factors to making significant contributions to long-term projects.

Psychology Major
Teaching Track, Mexico
One of the major draws of GoCorps for me was that I could develop my professional skills while serving overseas. Two years felt like a huge time commitment at first, but it really does fly by, and you'll come out a different person -- in the best way!

We were deeply involved with Campus Outreach during our undergraduate studies. Through CO we learned the value that believing community has in helping us to discern God's will.

GoCorps is maybe the best place you could go to for getting hands-on, practical fundraising training that will get you fully funded and set to launch in 3 months. They help you connect with an organization as well as set you up to launch at record times.
Daniel
Criminal Justice Major
Sports Track, Middle East
I entered the mission field as a young man with big ideas and little (no) experience. GoCorps came alongside and paired me with a long-term missionary, and the two years that followed tested and tried me in ways that I never expected.
