Volunteer
The Children’s Foundation is dedicated to ensuring that your donation dollars are directed to the children we serve, instead of administrative costs. As such, our volunteers and community advocates play an enormous role in the success of The Children’s Foundation of Guelph and Wellington.
We are always on the lookout for people who can share their time and talents to ensure our special fundraising events are professionally presented and fun for all participants.
