Volunteers

A Volunteer is an individual who works to help others but doesn’t get paid.

Some of the most common reasons why people choose to volunteer are:

  • To gain work experience and learn new skills
  • To meet new people
  • To improve their English-speaking skills
  • To help build their self esteem; and
  • Because they like helping others.

CILT’s Volunteer Program offers a variety of volunteer opportunities to a diverse group of individuals including:

  • People with disabilities
  • Newcomers to Canada; and
  • People from various cultural backgrounds.

Some of our volunteer opportunities include:

  • Assisting with mass mailings
  • Photocopying
  • Assembling information packages; and
    filing.
