Find your people.

A free community hub connecting Niagara volunteers — including students earning their 40 hours — with local non-profits.

Volunteers working together at a community event in Niagara

  3. 3

    Show up

Spring Trail Cleanup Crew

Niagara Trails Alliance

Join a crew of 15–20 volunteers cleaning up the Welland Canal trail. We supply gloves, grabbers, and bags — you bring closed-toe shoes and a water bottle. Great first volunteer gig: no experience needed, and a crew leader signs your hour sheet on the spot.

Food Sorting Saturdays

Welland Community Food Hub

Sort and shelve donated food at our warehouse. Music on, teams of two, and a pizza break at 11. Most shifts are students working on their 40 hours — you'll be in good company. A supervisor signs hour sheets at the end of every shift.
