Volunteer
The Support Network’s 211 service offers a Volunteer Information and Referral Service to meet the immediate need for volunteer referrals in Edmonton. By assessing area of interest, geographical area, and population served, a potential volunteer is provided with contact information for organizations that have volunteer opportunities matching their area of interest.
Access this service by dialing 211 if you’re within the City of Edmonton. Outside of the city call 482-INFO (4636). To further explore specific volunteer positions go to the Volunteer Edmonton website at www.volunteeredmonton.com and click on I Want to Volunteer. This will take you to a number of links including Go Volunteer at www.govolunteer.ca. To search Go Volunteer, click on “volunteer opportunities” and then browse by location, organization or activity.
Organizations wishing to list volunteer roles need to contact govolunteer@volunteeredmonton.com. Non-profit organizations listed will provide Volunteer Edmonton, a program of The Support Network, with an overview of the work they do, current and accurate contact information, and volunteer roles. The organization must accept the values, principles and standards of the Canadian Code of Volunteer Involvement.
