Volunteering
Volunteering, also known as Community Service, is a great way to get involved while in Canada. It helps you to meet new people, gain new experiences and skills, and practice your English. Volunteer experience also looks great on a resume when applying for jobs or postgraduate study. Generally, you do not need a Work Permit to volunteer.
Volunteering at CultureWorks as a Buddy
Buddies are current students and graduates. Their job is to help our new students. They attend all of the Intake and Orientation activities for new students and help to translate information, answer questions and share their knowledge and experiences. It is also a great way to meet new people and make friends.
Volunteering in the Community
Many students at CultureWorks volunteer for organizations and causes that are important to them. Your Student Services Coordinator can help you find volunteer opportunities in your community that interest you, and that are suitable for you as a CultureWorks student.
