Volunteering

As with any non-profit, volunteers are vital to the continued existance and success of our organization.

There are many reasons people volunteer. For some, it's to build their self-confidence or improve their office skills while for others it's to be around people and feel good about making a difference.

Volunteers come from all types of backgrounds. We have volunteers who assist us with our computer issues, do research for us, answer phones and deal with clients, offer support as a business coach or just fill in for whatever needs to be done.

Although many of our volunteers choose to donate more time, we ask that our volunteers are able to commit to at least 6 hours per week of their time over a three-month period. This allows us to ensure we are adequately staffed and gives the volunteer enough time to gauge if their needs are being met.

Currently, we have the following positions available;

1. Volunteer Assistant - You must enjoy working with people and have the ability to support and organize volunteers' schedules and needs.

2. Receptionist - You must be fluent in English (both written and oral) and have an upbeat, pleasant attitude.

3.Website Building and Maintenance

4. Event Assistant - You must be organized and work well with tight deadlines and limited budgets.

5. Data Entry

6. Business Coach -
You must be knowledgeable and well-versed with the challenges of running a business or being self-employed. You would work one-on-one with a client from either our Build a Business or Cash Plan program.

If you feel you are qualified and available for any of these positions or feel you have skills to offer which aren't listed above, please submit your interest via our online application form.
