Forced From Home exhibition in Charlotte

Save to Favorites

Doctors Without Borders is seeking passionate volunteers for Forced From Home, an exhibition on the global refugee crisis. We are coming to Charlotte and will be located in front of the NASCAR Hall of Fame from Sunday, October 7 - Sunday, October 14.

Forced From Home is a one-hour guided tour through an interactive exhibition designed to educate the public about the global refugee crisis. With experienced Doctors Without Borders aid workers leading the tour, visitors can engage with stories and materials gathered from refugee camps, sea rescue missions, and emergency medical projects around the world. This immersive tour will bring visitors closer to the real experiences of people displaced by violence and extreme hardship worldwide.


We are looking for enthusiastic, friendly, and reliable volunteers to help us staff the Forced From Home exhibition. Exhibition Volunteers will assist in a variety of roles on-site, including visitor registration, crowd management, virtual reality administration, and logistics support.

There are two volunteer shifts on exhibition days:

Weekdays (Monday - Friday)

• Morning shift: 8:30am - 2:15pm
• Afternoon shift: 3:30pm - 9:15pm

Weekends (Saturday and Sunday)

• Morning shift: 9:30am - 2:30pm
• Afternoon shift: 2:00pm - 7:30pm

Special skillsets are NOT required for any of the volunteer positions, however, those volunteering on the days before the exhibition dates for a "Load-In" volunteer shift must be comfortable lifting 30 pounds.

All volunteers must be 18 years of age on the day that they volunteer. There is no upper age limit to participate, however volunteers should be comfortable being on their feet, potentially in inclement weather while on site.
