YWCA Hamilton wouldn't be here today without the commitment of community
volunteers that exude the YWCA spirit. If you're energetic, enthusiastic and
committed, you could be YWCA volunteer material.
Our volunteers work in the following areas:
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. With so many programs and services,
we'll find a good fit for you.
But before you volunteer, consider these questions:
What skills can I
share? How much time
am I willing and able to commit? How would I
like to be involved?
Your time and skills are appreciated, but at YWCA Hamilton, we also require
commitment. Volunteers should be dependable, open to feedback and respectful of
our members and their confidences. In return, we'll try to match your skills to
an area that interests you. And we'll provide training, feedback and
recognition for a job well done. Don't forget, you don't have to be a young
woman to volunteer with YWCA Hamilton. Our name reflects our heritage, not our
current membership or mandate. We respect and value diversity of gender,
culture, race, sexual orientation and religion. Everyone is invited to help
out.
