The work of Architects Without Borders Seattle would not be possible without the support of all our amazing volunteers. AWBS is almost entirely volunteer led and run and we celebrate the time and talents of individuals and organizations of all backgrounds to achieve our mission.

 

While “architects” would appear to be our focus for volunteers, we are a community of landscape architects, engineers, planners, community builders, event planners, fundraisers, social media experts, website designers, administrative gurus, friends and family, as well as architects. In other words, that means YOU. If you are interested in our mission, there is likely a great way for you to get involved.

​

For volunteers who are architectural license candidates, the Architectural Experience Program (AXP), administered by NCARB, is a requirement in most jurisdictions for professional licensure. AWBS is an NCARB pre-approved Community-Based Design Center opportunity - When volunteering at AWBS you may earn up to 320 AXP hours for your volunteer service.

Please note, we are keeping our community safe and in the short term, to follow COVID-19 health protocols, we are not offering in-person volunteer intake sessions and meetings. Please do complete steps one, two, and three below in order to stay informed about volunteer opportunities!
