You don't have to be a teacher to help build the next generation of technologists. Bring your time, skills, experience, network, or perspective. We'll help you find where you fit.
WCT was built around a simple idea: opportunity grows when people who have found a way forward help create one for somebody else.
Our students explore, build, publish, earn credentials, connect, and launch. Then the ecosystem gets stronger when professionals, alumni, college students, community members, and supporters come back for the next person.
For professionals, college students, alumni, and early-career technologists who can share career insight, advisement, encouragement, industry perspective, or professional connections through TechRise.
For people who want to work directly with WCT students or support hands-on programming like CreativX Lab and NextGen Tech Collective.
WCT also needs people who make the organization itself stronger. This work keeps every program running.
Technology volunteer opportunities for professionals, college students, and community members. Most roles are remote.

Sometimes the most valuable thing you can give an emerging technologist is context.
TechRise Advisors help members navigate the path with real-world perspective, encouragement, connections, and advisement. You're not rescuing anyone. You're a member of a community sharing what you know and the access you have.
Every TechRise Advisor completes a background check through our volunteer portal before advising members.
Building opportunity takes educators, engineers, designers, recruiters, project managers, marketers, fundraisers, storytellers, operators, entrepreneurs, college students, executives, and people willing to make an introduction. If you have something useful to share, there may be a place for you here.
Choose a role above. TechRise volunteers join through the TechRise app. Other roles apply by email with the role title in the subject line.
