Volunteer Today

Your volunteer support helps children, youth, and their families
Family and Children’s Services is only able to provide the programs, events, and support to our children, youth, and families in the Region of Waterloo because of the help of our volunteers. There are a variety of volunteer opportunities available from mentoring a child or youth each week to providing support services for our projects, special events, and research.
Already have an interest?
If you already have an idea in mind for how you would like to volunteer, we would love to hear from you! We’ll talk about what’s available as well as what’s the best fit for your skills, talent, and time commitment.
Not sure where you could help?
If you want to help but aren't sure about the best way to do that, we will work with you to match your abilities and interest with a volunteer role. Call us at Volunteer Services 519-576-0540 or email us at volunteer.services@facswaterloo.org
