Every volunteer counts

We rely on hundreds of volunteers every year to help us ensure that every Camper experiences the magic of camp, no matter where they are in Ontario. Our event and office volunteers are no exception.

Whether you’re processing mail at the office, selling raffle tickets at our gala, or working the merchandise table at our open house, your time helps kids affected by childhood cancer.

We thank you in advance because we couldn’t do any of this without you!

Volunteer roles

Event Volunteers

As an event volunteer, you’ll work with our development department at community fundraising and engagement events. Whether it’s handing out medals at the Sporting Life 10k finish line, helping out at the silent auction at our gala, or helping us prepare for an upcoming event – you’ll have lots of opportunities to help out.

Most event volunteers are needed between April and October and you’ll be contacted as opportunities arise via email. These opportunities to volunteer take place across Ontario in communities like Toronto, Niagara, Muskoka, Ottawa, London, Prince Edward County and more.
