National Volunteer Week provides a chance to highlight the value of volunteers and their positive impact on society. Every April, Volunteer Canada leads the National Volunteer Week (NVW) campaign. This year’s theme is Volunteers Make Waves: Together, we create ripples of change. It highlights the power, impact and importance of individual and collective volunteer efforts across Canada. Like a wave, volunteering is movement building. Learn more about this year’s theme at Volunteer Canada’s website.
