Volunteer Commitment

Volunteers are requested to work no less than one shift and no more than five shifts.

Secondary School Students

Work Experience Students: Since students in these programs can be released from class, we ask these students to take weekday shifts if possible.

Grad Transition/Planning Students: Weekend or after school shifts are available. Students who can be released from classes are encouraged to do weekday shifts.

Adults or Specialist Classes

We have a great need for volunteers who can do weekday shifts and encourage you to volunteer on weekdays where possible.

Other Considerations

  • Sign up early to get your preferred days and activities.
  • Shift times may be subject to change as details develop.
  • Scheduling priority is given to groups registering 10 or more volunteers.
  • Complimentary tea & coffee and snacks are provided for volunteers. Lunch is not provided.

Orientation

All volunteers are asked to attend an orientation session (time TBD). Specific activities and assignments will be reconfirmed at that time.
