Get Involved
Skills-matched placements that seed real capacity in communities.
Primed's volunteer model is built on the Dandelion Principle: skills-oriented volunteers who seed capacity in communities where they're placed. Like dandelion seeds, each volunteer carries specific strengths — teaching, tech, business, creative — that take root and grow in the communities they serve.
In 2024, we hosted 131 volunteers from 12+ countries, contributing 3,560 hours of direct community support. The economic value of this work is estimated at $178M–$490M COP in replacement costs.
