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, healing and opportunity

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.

Andrew

International Relations Major
Compassion-Justice Track, Middle East

I always knew that I wanted to be an international worker, but I did not know where. GoCorps was the best help I could have as to clarifying options that aligned with my interests, passions, and talents.

Bri

Communications Major
Refugee & Pre-Natal Care Ministry, Middle East

The Support Raising Model is incredibly helpful. Although it may seem so unnatural to call and email people so much, it's not. There is so much biblical truth in fundraising as GoCorps shares with you.

Noelle

Social Work Major
Compassion/Justice Track, Middle East

The GoCorps training was so helpful! I knew I wanted to go overseas but didn't know how to get going. GoCorps helped me get connected and out there. They walked alongside me through the whole process. I followed their fundraising model and was fully funded in 40 days!

Mariana

Nursing Major
Medical Track, Bulgaria

A big reason of why I wanted to serve with a ministry for my first two years of work was because I wanted to build the foundation of my working life on biblical principles with people who were like-minded and would point me to Christ, both enlarging and focusing my sights on God.
