Volunteers participate in all key programs and activities of the organization, and are an integral part of New Women New Yorkers’ cross-community vision and of its career-mentoring model. Thanks to our volunteers, we have increased capacity to accomplish our mission and to meet critical needs of immigrant women and their families.
As of 2025, we have a team of over 30 regular volunteers, and more than 200 additional volunteers through partnership with corporations.

- Professionals who work in high-growth industries, with a particular interest for those with experience in the clean energy industry;
- Individuals who are passionate about empowering women and immigrants;
- Live in New York City (or nearby).
All volunteers must be over 18 years old.
