Special Purpose Flag Pole: National Volunteer Week is April 24 – 30, 2022

April 24-30, 2022 is National Volunteer Week in Canada, a time to celebrate the volunteers who make our communities stronger. The theme this year is “Volunteering Is Empathy In Action: Volunteers Bring Heart To Canada’s Communities”, a reminder of the compassion volunteers show for fellow residents through their volunteer efforts.

Region of Queens Municipality will fly the Volunteer flag through to May 5, 2022 on the Special Purpose Flag Pole, which is located at Town hall Arts & Cultural Centre, 219 Main St., Liverpool.

Volunteers can be empathetic, but volunteering can also help us develop empathy – building our capacity to work collectively and contribute to a vibrant, inclusive society. Canadians have dedicated approximately 5 billion hours to volunteer activities! That’s something worth celebrating! How has volunteering impacted your life? Share your stories!
