What does a Volunteer Centre do?
The Volunteer Centre plays an essential role in the Community. We inspire and foster volunteer engagement by providing the means for organizations and potential volunteers to connect.
How can we support your organization?
The Volunteer Centre hosts events, programs, and fundraisers throughout the year. By getting involved as a Volunteer in our programs, attending our fundraising events, or becoming a sponsor or donor, you will be helping to make a more vibrant community through supporting volunteerism.

We help inspire and recruit new volunteers in our communities and help create opportunities to appreciate all our local Volunteers. SOS Community Connections also shares training opportunities and brings organizations together to share resources.
How much is the membership fee?
As of 2022, our membership fee is FREE! It is our way to support all our local Non-profits, festivals, and partners who need Volunteers.
