Because Destination ImagiNation is a not-for-profit organization, almost everything we do is organized and executed by our wonderful volunteers.

From organizing DI in a school, to managing a team, to planning and hosting a Tournament, to volunteering at a Tournament, to writing a Challenge, volunteers play a vital role in ensuring that Destination ImagiNation provides the best possible experience for all its participants.

Volunteer and make a difference!

If you’re interested in becoming a volunteer, please contact  Kate Donelan or Kris Beisel or your Regional Director (look under “Regions”  to find your Regional Directors contact information).
