Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteerism continues to be the backbone of this health and wellness effort, as it was the vital foundation of the initial movement. We could not have reached where we are today without the countless hours, experiences, and input of volunteers from the Fort Erie community and surrounding areas. Why volunteer? Volunteering is an enriching way to be part of the community and to meet new friends and neighbours.
