Volunteer WITH US

Not only are volunteers vital to Confederation Park 55+ Activity Centre, it can also be vital to the volunteer by boosting self esteem, self confidence and satisfaction with life in general. A volunteer's role can give a sense of pride and identity. We have a variety of different areas which we would love help with. Please either email your completed Volunteer Application Form to members@yycseniors.com or drop it off at the Office.
