Volunteer Waterloo Region

A big thank you to the volunteers at @reception_house for all that they do to support newcomers and refugees. They are a great show of how this region makes every moment matter when it comes to supporting people who are new to the region.

Only a few videos left for #NVW2024

The next organization we are sharing is Retail Therapy which run by the Domestic Violence Victim Alliance. They have amazing volunteers that love the cause that they support, and use their time and talents in meaningful way.

More moments that matter from #NVW2024 to come!

The next community highlight is from @hope_spring and their diverse group of volunteers working together to create a sense of community and belonging for cancer patients and survivors.

They are a great representation of the #NVW2024 of having every moment matter.

We had a great evening on April 18th to celebrate our amazing volunteers. Thanks also to CIG Tri-City for delivering the laughs and good feels of the evening. Volunteer Waterloo Region

Some of the great people at EDCL wanted to share their stories , and amazing experiences being part of the unique community that they offer. The ability to have such a positive experience helping others is what is really behind every moment mattering for #NVW2024 .

As we continue to highlight organizations from #NVW2024 , we have @compassrefugee and two wonderful volunteers sharing their stories about supporting the newcomer community here in Waterloo Region.

These moments really matter to those who come here with so little.

The first of the solo organization Highlights is @Caminowellbeing. This wonderful Mother-Daughter volunteer duo is helping out with children and babies at this great organization.

Volunteering is best with others, spend time with friends, family. Happy #NVW2024
