Globally connecting and empowering communities who practice and teach servant leadership

WELCOME
Welcome to our web-site! Co-Serve International is a non-profit organization based in Oregon that works globally to help develop leaders that serve others. We believe our world is in great need of leaders who are willing to live with integrity and according to core values of people and relationships. Such leaders recognize that life’s purpose and meaning is not about being served, but it is about the opportunity to give your life to serve others. This kind of “servant leadership” involves helping people to know their authentic self, their value and potential, and that they have a unique purpose in this world. It also recognizes that people come to life when they can live out their purpose and potential in connection with others in community. Our mission is about being a community that practices and teaches servant leadership while working to empower and connect other communities who are engaged in a similar work. We are thankful for 6 partner communities around the world who are currently partnering with us in this work.
