Community Resident and Volunteer Programs
The Kushi Institute Community Resident and Volunteer Programs are great adventures in learning about the macrobiotic way of life.
Working with like-minded people, helping others, and studying make these programs rich and rewarding experiences.We are looking for people who want to contribute their time and energy to enable a smooth operation of the Institute through hard work and good spirit.
Community Resident Program The Community Resident Program (CRP) is an opportunity for living and learning at The Kushi Institute. Participants volunteer for a period of seventeen weeks (40 hours a week) in a department such as kitchen, office, housekeeping, grounds/maintenance, and conferences & events. After successfully completing the seventeen week commitment, participants are awarded the benefit of a one month course, part of the Macrobiotic Leadership Program.

The fee for volunteering is regularly $50 per week.
