Who We are

Who we are

Our values & commitments

We Put Volunteers at the Centre

Everything we do begins with the belief that volunteers are essential to healthy communities.

We Support Grassroots and Social Justice Movements

Volunteerism plays an important role in advancing social change, equity, and community action.

We Care About Community

We believe strong communities are built through connection, belonging, and shared responsibility.

We Value Equity & Inclusion

We are committed to creating welcoming and accessible environments where diverse lived experiences, identities, and perspectives are valued and supported.

Commitment to Reconciliation

We acknowledge that Indigenous peoples are the traditional guardians of the land we now call Canada. We recognize the importance of ongoing learning, reconciliation, anti-racism, and decolonizing practices within volunteerism and community work.
