Volunteers

Thank you to our dedicated volunteers!
In spite of COVID-19, over 700 of our essential volunteers delivered more than 23,000 hours of critical support to our community! Whether it’s delivering Meals on Wheels or food hampers, helping at our Corner Drop-in and Food Bank, preparing meals at Community Dinner, giving time as a Board member, delivering services virtually like community mediation, community outreach, tutoring, mentoring, income tax clinics, yoga and seniors social programs and stepping up to do letter writing and phone calls to isolated seniors, our volunteers make a huge difference in the lives of vulnerable people.
Volunteer Spotlight
The Neighbourhood Group’s tutoring program is a vital program for at-risk youth with difficulty accessing academic support. During the pandemic, dedicated volunteers like Alexis have provided virtual tutoring to help youth reach their full academic potential. Alexis keeps young people engaged with hours of critical support in many subjects.
"I started tutoring because I remember how it felt to struggle in school, and I wanted to help others who have that same problem. I have the opportunity to give back to my community and I am super grateful for that."
