Volunteer Opportunities

We Need Your Help!

Looking to volunteer for a great cause and earn your community hours? Look no further! Easter Seals Ontario is seeking enthusiastic and motivated volunteers of all ages to assist with the National AccessAbility Week Kick-off.

Event Committee opportunities:

We are actively looking for volunteers to join the National AccessAbility Week Kick-off Event Committee. If you are a member of the York Region community, a business or event planning student, etc., we would love you to join our team! Committee members meet once a month (possibly on a more regular basis closer to the event day) to discuss sponsorship opportunities, event logistics, etc.

Volunteer opportunities include:

Race kit pick-up
Course marshals
Water station crew
Set-up crew
Event greeters

Volunteer time commitment will total approximately 5 – 6 hours, depending on the volunteer role. All volunteers will receive event swag, as well as snacks throughout the day.

For information regarding Volunteer and Event Committee opportunities, please contact Andrea Peterson.
