VSO

Volunteer openings

If you don't see a specific placement which is appropriate for you at this time, please apply to the general application as we are always looking to bring through skilled professionals in anticipation of future demand in the following sectors: health, education, business, natural resources, IT and fundraising.

If we are not able to match you to a current placement but anticipate demand for your skills in the near future, we will keep your application on file for six months in order to consider you against upcoming positions. You will be sent a notification in this case.

Due to funding restrictions, many of our placements are only open to Canadian permanent Residents and Canadian citizens. There are limited opportunities for US citizens and permanent residents currently but this is an area of work that we are developing for the future.
