Volunteer with West Coast Kids Cancer Foundation

At WCK, we are thankful for our dedicated volunteers who make our programs and services possible.

 

We intake new volunteers into any open roles once a month to ensure we are intentional with your time. Our volunteers bring an array of skills and volunteering with us looks different for each person.

Most of our roles require volunteers to be 19+ and be available during business hours. However, we are always looking for people who want to share their skills with WCK and welcome the opportunity to chat with you. Please reach out to our Volunteer Coordinator if you would like more information before submitting an application. Below are some examples of volunteer roles at WCK. Scroll further down to look for roles that are currently open. 

Volunteers are important in supporting our food programs so families can be nourished at the hospital and all across the province.
