Description

Are you interested in volunteering in your community? Do you enjoy working alongside someone else in your volunteer efforts? Are you perhaps looking for someone to share this adventure with? As a one-on-one match, your role will be to develop a supportive relationship with a person who has an intellectual disability while volunteering and making meaningful contributions to your community together.

Mainly we have an individual who would like to volunteer at Meals on Wheels but is looking for someone to do this alongside with. This volunteer would also need to go through the Meals on Wheels volunteer onboarding and screening (think of it as double volunteering!).

How will this opportunity benefit the volunteer?
This is a great chance to have FUN, volunteer your time alongside a new friend and make a meaningful contribution to your community!
How will the organization benefit?
You will be helping us achieve our mission of helping the Ottawa community be a more welcoming place for people with intellectual disabilities, Autism and Dual Diagnosis.
Volunteer location:
7 Bayview Station Road (This is our office address not the volunteering position location!)
