Volly

One of our favourite ways to volunteer is to do art with seniors! Can’t wait to start these programs up again when the pandemic is over! #calgary #yyc #calgarycares

Some exciting news from @ciwa_yyc - please share with anyone who would like to help!

Such a good idea!!!!! Drop off mitts and touques at Olympic plaza!

Thank you so much to the customers abs staff of @stridescanmore and @newbalance for sponsoring an immigrant family this Christmas through the @ciwa_yyc - just a small amount of all the items this family will get. Thank you for your generosity!

Hear ye hear ye! After being around for almost 3 years (yes time flies when you’re volunteering) we have officially registered as a non profit! This means we can do even more cool projects in the future and ensure Volly remains a vehicle for positive change in communities :) thanks for all your support! Excited for our different projects coming soon! Thus wouldn’t be possible without Patrick who volunteered to do all the paperwork

Drop off donations to 918 centre street north during @tigerstedtflea business hours or we can pick up!
