Volunteer Resources

Volunteering is not always straight forward. Here at Volunteer Kelowna we’re trying to make things easier by bringing together volunteer resources from across the Internet and making them accessible to you.

Our Blog

Volunteer Kelowna’s blog will feature regular blog postings that will highlight a variety of subjects, including (as examples):

  • how to better engage with volunteers;
  • benefits of volunteer work;
  • working with nonprofit organizations;
  • building career skills; and
  • volunteering abroad.

We will also seek out opportunities to engage with nonprofit organizations in Kelowna and ask them to do feature postings on their organization. This will give them an opportunity to highlight the great work they do, and to have a higher level of engagement with the community. If you or your organization have interest in posting to Volunteer Kelowna’s blog, then please contact us.

Volunteer News

We will highlight local volunteer news in the News section of Volunteer Kelowna. If you have a news article you would like highlighted, please contact us.

Volunteer Quotes

Looking for inspirational quotes about helping others? volunteering? Look no further! Volunteer Kelowna‘s quotes database is always growing.

To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics; to appreciate beauty; to give of one’s self, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived–that is to have succeeded.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
