What We Do
GoCorps works to make two years of global missional service a normalized, accessible next step to Christian students and young professionals of all majors and backgrounds. We place motivated recent grads to use their degree alongside long-term projects sharing the hope of Christ and addressing physical needs.
3.14 billion people are "unreached" by the gospel
65% of the world live in religiously restricted areas
1.45 billion people in the world live in poverty
The Opportunity
God is already at work. And we see new ways to join him.
Skill-Based Placements
Traditional missionaries with Bible degrees often have difficulty acquiring visas in regions with the least access to the gospel. A more strategic method is placing people with practical skills and applied degrees–in medicine, engineering, business, job creation, IT, education, social work, and more–to serve in gospel roles.
Two-Year Placements
We believe in the strategy of two-year placements. We consider it the sweet spot for most grads, between the open-ended commitment of long-term service and the limited influence of short-term trips. Two years is long enough to meaningfully engage in a culture and become conversational in the local language, both key factors to making significant contributions to long-term projects.

Business Entrepreneurship Major
Compassion/Justice Track, Middle East
My time overseas has been such a rich experience. Through witnessing injustice and brokenness day in and day out I was faced with the reality and weight of sin. I am so much more aware of the need and goodness of the Gospel. It truly is good news!

GoCorps is maybe the best place you could go to for getting hands-on, practical fundraising training that will get you fully funded and set to launch in 3 months. They help you connect with an organization as well as set you up to launch at record times.
Andy
Engineering Major
Refugee Outreach, Middle East
One of the biggest takeaways from my service overseas was a deeper sense of surrender to God for the remainder of my life, in addition to an excitement for pursuing the building of the Kingdom above all other pursuits.

GoCorps provided me with all the proper support raising training, coaching, and resource materials that I needed. I felt like I could boldy take on support raising and the mindset went from something I had to do to it [support raising] being a blessing to partake in. (Mar. 2024)
