WHAT CAN YOU DO IN 1 OR 2 HOURS A WEEK? 

  • Listen, really listen to a resident over coffee;
  • Take a resident to the store and help select healthy foods;
  • Teach residents how to cook a favorite recipe;
  • Accompany a resident to a medical appointment;
  • Become an agent of change in someone's life, someone who needs you.

CHANGE STARTS HERE. CAN WE COUNT YOU IN?

 

Our Harbour volunteers are women and men of diverse backgrounds. We are always looking for volunteers to visit apartments, animators to lead group activities and others to help guide the organization.

Apartment Volunteers to Visit Residents

Apartment Volunteers and Apartment Treasurers interact directly with residents. Their common concern is to assist our residents in the daily tasks that enable them to function on their own.

Event / Workshop Animators

Volunteers who animate or facilitate activities or events provide residents with variety of opportunities to learn, to express themselves and to have fun. Whether through creative arts, cooking, discussion groups or a walk in the fresh air, you can bring a smile, build confidence and create community.

Board / Committee Members

Board and Committee members ensure the responsible and sustainable operation of Our Harbour through careful strategy, planning and financial oversight.
