Connecting People. Strengthening Community.
The SOS Volunteer Centre Society was founded in 2006 to support and promote volunteerism throughout the South Okanagan Similkameen. In 2023, we changed our name to South Okanagan Similkameen Community Connections Volunteer Centre to better reflect the growing range of services and support we provide to our community.
