There's a lot of moving pieces when it comes to events - and to ensure the event runs smoothly, all these pieces have to fit! Help us with set up, clean up, running events, and everything in between. 

​

Upcoming events include:

​

Canada Day Carnival (July 1, 12pm-3pm)

As a volunteer, you'll help complete tax returns for adults, newcomers, students, and others. We'll provide you with all the training and necessary software. If you have a couple of hours in the next few months, we'd appreciate your help, as volunteers are vital to this program.

Period poverty isn't just happening in developing countries - it's happening in our own community. Women and girls of all ages are struggling to afford period products every month. So - Period Pop Ups will provide FREE products to anyone and everyone who needs it. These work on a "take what you need, donate what you can" basis. Until they are self-sufficient and being successfully re-stocked from community members, we'll need to keep an eye on them to ensure they are 1) fully stocked; 2) safe; 3) in good shape.

Weekly check-ins and restocks of community pantries

Help plan, organize and facilitate product drives
