Medical Students

Operation Smile in Ethiopia is pleased to offer medical mission opportunities to medical students in their final year or residency. This is an observational only role.

Non-medical volunteers

Many children are turned away because of a lack of funds. You can change that. Operation Smile in Ethiopia needs volunteers to help raise funds and awareness so that more children will receive the gift of life-changing surgery.

If you are currently a student and are interested in joining or starting an Operation Student Club then please visit the Student Programs section of our website.

Translators and professional photographers are also welcome to apply for volunteer positions.

Contact Operation Smile in Ethiopia for a volunteer application.
