Volunteer Centres: An Untapped Resource
We’re writing this letter, signed by aligned Volunteer Centres in a robust network across the country, to speak up on how meaningful volunteerism is enabled.
An Open Letter from Volunteer Centres Across Canada
Canadians volunteer more than anywhere else in the world. Every year, nearly 13 million individuals contribute time to an organization in their community, and during the COVID-19 pandemic hundreds of thousands more have stepped up to deliver services to those most vulnerable. While it’s clear that volunteerism is a powerful characteristic of Canadian identity, the role of Volunteer Centres—the vibrant network of 200+ agencies whose role it is to facilitate this extraordinary exchange—is far from understood, or worse yet, has been ignored. In recent weeks, we have been reminded that, in many instances, governments, funders, and even some non-profit leaders, fail to recognize the skill, resources, and infrastructure required to keep volunteers engaged and our social services afloat.
Notwithstanding a crisis, every single Canadian benefits fr om volunteer contributions because of their presence in our social fabric. Even more importantly, volunteers ensure our country’s most vulnerable community members are not left behind. This has been true for decades. The time and skill volunteers dedicate increase our country’s capacity in hospitals, shelters, food banks, schools, festivals, community sport, among others, that if paid, would exceed more than 50 billion dollars every year.
But volunteerism is more than human capacity, and what makes volunteerism truly meaningful is that the exchange is not one-way. When a volunteer gives their time, they in turn gain empathy, understanding, and access to skills or human assets. It is this two-way relationship, enabled by skilled volunteer engagers, that makes volunteerism a meaningful, and ethical exchange of labour. Without an understanding of this important social contract, we stand to drift from volunteerism as a truly democratic function of our society.
Local, community-based Volunteer Centres across the country have built connections between non-profits and volunteer seekers from every demographic. We continue to hold an essential recruitment role that enables volunteers to find the opportunities they are looking for and organizations find the volunteers they need.
We also do so much more.
More than ever, Canada’s 170,000 non-profit and charitable organizations have turned to Volunteer Centres for answers during the COVID-19 crisis. As organizations with decades of experience, we know that it takes expertise to respond quickly and effectively to recruit, train, and manage volunteers to serve clients safely. And what’s more, we know how to leverage the skills and interest of volunteers to build meaningful roles that grow personal experience, and therefore, economic and social opportunity.
While some governments spent time, energy and money in building new structures and mechanisms to recruit and deploy volunteers at national and provincial levels, local community based Volunteer Centres have been on the front-lines in realigning their existing resources; providing training and supports for volunteer engagement; coordinating recovery efforts; and pulling together diverse partners to meet identified needs – most often without additional financial or human resources.
We have ensured that volunteering has continued to serve a vital role in our community, despite the fact that two out of thr ee charities and non-profit organizations have lost more than 30% of the revenue that allow them to deliver regular, necessary services.
As we move to a post-pandemic world, the role of locally-based Volunteer Centres is more important than ever. In an anticipated time of high government debt, limited resources, and greater community needs, the expertise of Volunteer Centres must be harnessed to ensure that we uphold the integrity of volunteerism that underpins our vibrant, and diverse society.
We’re up to the challenge.

National Indigenous Peoples Day
National Aboriginal Day was proclaimed in 1996 by former Governor General Roméo A. LeBlanc. The following is the text of the declaration to make National Aboriginal Day an official day of celebration, recognized by the crown: National Aboriginal Day A Proclamation
www.rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca

On September 30th, we observe National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a day to honor the resilience and strength of Indigenous communities across Canada. This important day encourages us to reflect on the ongoing impacts of colonialism and commit to meaningful actions toward reconciliation
At Volunteer Canada, we are committed to upholding the principles of Justice, Accessibility, Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity (JAIDE) in all aspects of our work. We recognize the colonial constructs present in narratives around volunteerism and are working to shift these narratives to reflect diverse models of community participation in an effort to actively move towards reconciliation.We recognize the importance of understanding the histories and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples.
Hi, ‘I have volunteered at the Volunteer Centre for over 10 years. It has been a pleasure to get to know the extremely dedicated staff. I work with the FSS program and complete the payroll by verifying information, calculating the HST and filing. It is very rewarding to feel my work and my time are both needed and valued.
Elaine Carter, Admin. Volunteer
Thank you Elaine for your continued commitment with us! You are so valued as an important part of our team! You are always willing to help us like assisting us with our ‘Tri-Community Recognition Breakfast’ – Keep up your volunteer spirit as it is so appreciated!
