National Volunteer Week - April 10-16
During National Volunteer Week, we are reminded of those who lead our communities with their drive to make a difference and dedication to helping others. During the week of April 10-16, join the Saskatchewan Children's Festival in showing your appreciation for the hard work demonstrated by our volunteers and volunteers around our nation.
Volunteer Canada along with Level Studios has developed a video aimed at inspiring our country to say thank you to our 12.5 million volunteers across Canada. The video paints a picture of the diverse and unique landscape of volunteers across our country and their daily impact. From coaches to mentors, community sevice workers to change makers, volunteers are all around and their efforts are at the foundation of our communities. Check out the right now below!
