We make it easy for organizations to lead, plan, govern and work with the right people to deliver their missions.

Our passion is PEOPLE. Building sustainability through people, to be exact. We work with voluntary sector organizations to engage people and develop leaders—at all levels.

We have been a student of the voluntary sector for 65 years. Through extensive Professional Development Opportunities and innovative services like govolunteer.ca, our members are able to connect to the available talent willing to lend their time. We believe all volunteering is valuable. However, the talent pool is changing, and changing fast. In the coming years, the successful organizations will be those who can best adapt to this change by offering new, relevant opportunities that truly engage the skills and expertise of the next generation of volunteers.

We are committed to working with organizations challenged with not enough time for planning, a shortage of volunteers, lack of new perspectives on their board and financial sustainability.

People are the competitive advantage of the voluntary sector. By effectively engaging paid and unpaid people at all levels, we can build stronger organizations — and healthier, more vibrant communities.

People want to make a difference.
Outstanding organizations enable them to do so.
