Coming up on Wednesday September 23rd!
The Community Volunteer Fair is a great opportunity to connect with local organizations and learn about volunteer opportunities in and around Golden.
Drop in between 3pm-6pm at the Golden Seniors Centre and come say hi!

Along with the Golden Women's Resource Centre, we are excited to share that we are hosting a Community Volunteer Fair on September 23rd from 3-6pm.

Are you a community member that has been looking for a way to help local organizations reach their goals all the while gaining fulfilling experiences as a volunteer? Many organizations are actively looking for volunteers! This will be a great opportunity to learn about which organizations could use a helping hand, and what part they play in our community.

As we reach out to community partners this week, we welcome organizations interested in attending to reach out directly to us at the Golden WorkBC Centre, or the Golden Women's Resource Centre for more information!
