Volunteer with MAF

Serve with purpose. Impact lives. Join the journey.

Volunteering with MAF is more than just lending a hand, it’s joining a team that delivers practical help and lasting change to some of the world’s most remote communities.

For 80 years, MAF has been using aviation and technology to overcome barriers and transform lives. But we can’t do it alone. We depend on people like you to share our story, support our work, and help expand our impact.

Whether you’ve got a few hours to spare each month, or are looking for a meaningful long-term commitment, there’s a place for you in the MAF family.


Why volunteer with MAF?

Every flight MAF takes brings life-saving medical care, supplies, disaster response, and the gospel to remote communities. As a volunteer, your local effort fuels global transformation.

Whether you love public speaking, hospitality, organising, praying or tech, we have a place for your skills and passions.

You’ll join a passionate, mission-hearted community across Australia who care deeply about seeing isolated people reached and restored.

Many of our volunteers say their involvement with MAF brings new inspiration, a stronger sense of purpose, and connection to stories that truly matter.
