Well if they were organised into corps wouldn't that allow there efforts to be organized and coordinated making them more effective? and I was thinking there could also be an engineering corps for critical infastructure projects that would make the peoples lives around them better. I was also thinking that charities could be set up and volenteers mustered to fund and people such corps.

The Peace Corps does just about everything that you have mentioned above. You may be taking the name too literally. I've included a link below from the official PC website that describes the various work that volunteers do around the world (primary/secondary education, water projects, health education, business development, environmental projects, etc).

There are non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that do similar things as well, though they won't call themselves 'corps' necessarily.

Generally the Peace Corps will only provide the assistance that th host country requests, e.g. if they need help in water projects then most likely engineers will be sent.
