Ignite This Ish is a grassroots nonprofit focused on bridging the gap between underrepresented communities and the tech world through creative education, digital tools, and accessible design. We’re in an exciting stage of growth and are looking for passionate volunteers to help us build something transformative.

Whether you’re a designer, researcher, strategist, organizer, or just someone who believes in tech equity, we welcome your energy and perspective. Volunteering with us means contributing to real-world projects like our Design Equity Lab (a 12-week UX program for youth), community-centered research, and knowledge-sharing through visual storytelling and education.

We’re looking for folks who are:
* Aligned with our values around inclusion, equity, and empowerment
* Interested in using their skills (or learning new ones) to support social impact work
* Open to flexible collaboration and remote teamwork
* Excited to co-create new systems that center community voices

No matter your background or skill set, there’s a place for you here. Come shape what’s next with us.
