Volunteers are the heart of the work we do at Strathcona Place Society. Volunteers contribute to and support our recreational activities, programs, events, and Departments.
Our volunteers are engaged in meaningful activities and roles, and they come from diverse backgrounds but have one thing in common - a strong desire to help others.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Regular Volunteer
Do you like to work in a team, need to build administrative experience, or consider yourself to be a people person? We provide daily shifts to support the work of our various Departments. Schedules are flexible enough to fit your busy lifestyle.
Special Events Volunteer
Our special events are the talk of the town! There is (usually) an event for almost every celebratory event on the calendar: Thanksgiving, Easter, Christmas, Mother’s Day, the list goes on. We also have our flagship fundraising events to add to this list. If you are detailed oriented, enjoy the company of others, are an exceptional multitasker, then this role is for you.

A volunteer shift typically lasts for four hours, except for the Phone Pal volunteer, whose hours will vary.

There is no financial obligation to our volunteers.
