Flag on Special Purpose Flagpole: April 16 – 22, 2023 is National Volunteer Week

National Volunteer Week is April 16 – 22, 2023! It’s a time to celebrate and thank Canada’s 24 million volunteers, especially the local volunteers who make our communities stronger. The theme this year is “Volunteering Weaves Us Together”, a reminder of the time, talent and energy volunteers share to strengthen the fabric of our community.

 Volunteering helps us find friendship, develop trust, and gain belonging. We become more deeply connected to our community and create a sense of unity, which builds on 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!
