"At the heart of volunteerism are the ideals of service and solidarity and the belief that together we can make the world better. Volunteers share their time. They share their skills and talents. Above all, they share a human experience. They know that the true measure of success in life is not what we gain but what we give back to our fellow men and women."
- Former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Anan
Want to use your people skills to help others at recreation centres or special events? Want to volunteer to better your community and the lives of others? Then volunteering with the District of Saanich may be just right for you.
Volunteering provides opportunities to:
- Spend time doing things that make you and other people feel great
- Learn new skills
- Meet new people
- Create an atmosphere of fellowship
- Give back to your community
- Have as much fun as the kids do!
We're looking for friendly, diplomatic people to volunteer in recreation centres and at special events. The ideal volunteer enjoys working with the public and is committed, approachable, responsible and reliable. Our volunteers also need to respect the District of Saanich's regulations and agree to undergo a Criminal Record Check. |
