City of Kitchener volunteer opportunities Volunteer With Us We know that one of our greatest strengths in our community is our wonderful volunteers. Whether it is a one-time event volunteer or a committed weekly meal program volunteer - our volunteers make a difference in our community. They make programs and services possible, they share their voices on issues and they can change a group of houses into a connected neighbourhood. Participate in city government Your participation in the work the city does is an important step to ensure we are able to build Kitchener for the future. We want to make it easier for you to know more about what we do and how you can get involved. Our guidebook, City Hall 101, provides valuable information to help you understand how decisions are made at the city, how we can work together with the public and what role they can play in decision making. You can also book a classroom or group tour of City Hall to learn more about how municipal government works. Call Rebecca Florence to learn more 519-741-2200 x 7537 City of Kitchener Volunteer Resources also manages Earth Day celebrations (including School Yard Clean-ups, and the 20 Minute Makeover for businesses); Kitchener in Bloom and Festival of Neighbourhoods. Spring Volunteer Opportunities Bikefest and Bike Check Volunteers Do you want to be a part of the Bike Kitchener’s Bikecheck? BikeCheck is like a coat check, only for your bike. Last year we parked over 1200 bikes – this year we need your help to park even more. As a volunteer member you’ll have access to fun outdoor summer events, be a part of the growing cycling community, contribute to the creation of a sustainable Kitchener, receive an awesome t-shirt to show your pride and we’ll even throw you a volunteer appreciation party at the end of the cycling season! Also, we’re flexible – you can sign up for 2 hours or 200 hours. Help us kick off the summer with our 5th annual BikeFest! Kids in the Kitchen Saturday mornings, the City of Kitchener Market is a hub of activity for shoppers and venders! It is also buzzing with volunteer opportunities! The Market has great possibilities for individuals who are interested in working with children at our Kid’s in the Kitchen program and other theme events. Leisure Support Volunteer As a Leisure Support volunteer, you would provide oneon-one support to a person with a disability who would like assistance participating in a recreational activity. The person can be any age and they might participate in any kind of activity from swimming lessons, to teen drop-ins, to aquafit/exercise classes, and more. Meal Program and Snack Bar If you are friendly, outgoing, dependable and understand the importance of great customer services consider becoming one of our valuable Meal Program or Snack Bar volunteer.
