Celebrate the “Merry Month of May” with us
Celebrate the “Merry Month of May” with us. We invite you to reach out to your family, neighbors and friends and ask them to consider becoming a volunteer driver. For any referral from you that results in us recruiting a new active driver, you will receive $50.
Know a child who could use a holiday? Now accepting applications and referrals for Summer Camp!
Every year The Salvation Army in Moncton sends 55 children (ages 6-12) who wouldn’t otherwise afford the opportunity, to Summer Blast Camp. Campers bunk in cabins at Scotian Glen on the banks of Sutherland’s River near New Glasgow, Nova Scotia.

Drivers needed Greater Fredericton
We are in need of volunteers in Oromocto, Tri-County, New Maryland and Hanwell/Kingclear areas. If you or someone you know would be able to give a few hours a week or month to help please let us know. You can volunteer as much or as little as you want. Help us change lives one ride at a time!
Mobilizing-Communities
The population of the area we cover in southeast New Brunswick is not dense. The organizations that eventually formed Urban/Rural Rides started as an initiative to help fill that gap primarily for the rural areas, because they don’t have any bus systems, the trains don’t stop in the rural areas, and they don’t have taxis. It leaves a vast portion of our population without transportation, so unless their neighbours drive them, or if a senior’s adult children take time off work to drive them, they are isolated. They’re cut off from services that they need.
Drop-in grief support group
Commencing 1st February, we have a new drop-in grief support group happening the first Wednesday of every month in Shediac Cape. The support group will begin at 2 pm. No appointment necessary.
Y Mind – a free anxiety support program for people between the ages of 13-30
The YMCA of Greater Moncton is thrilled to announce the launch of Y Mind – a free anxiety support program for people between the ages of 13-30. Y Mind is an early intervention and prevention mental wellness program for teens and youth who are experiencing mild to moderate anxiety.
