North Shore Youth Volunteer Directory

2018 Twenty Third Edition

in volunteering within the community, particularly on the North Shore. The directory provides

useful information regarding volunteer opportunities for youth between the ages of 12 – 19

years old in the City of North Vancouver, and the Districts of North and West Vancouver. North

Shore Community Resources publishes the directory annually, creating an up-to-date and easy-

to-use resource. A variety of volunteer positions are listed ranging from engagement in social,

economic, cultural, and environmental activism. There are positions to meet everyone’s

interests and availability, with opportunities for entry level, to both short and long term time

frames. The directory, as well as other volunteer resources, can be accessed online at the North

Shore Community Resources website at www.nscr.bc.ca

Benefits of Volunteering

There are many different reasons people become involved in volunteering. Volunteering is a

way to contribute to your community, expand your horizons, and explore new future career

options. It is also a social activity providing visibility to a wide range of people, including many

strong influential community leaders. Volunteering is an excellent way to develop your career

potential by fulfilling graduation requirements for secondary school and by gaining valuable

work experience, network contacts, and references through volunteer positions that may even

lead directly to employment. Volunteering enables you to find your strengths, your passions

and explore your interests while developing workplace, management, customer service, and

leadership skills that can be documented in your resume. School and career counsellors,

encourage job seekers to document pertinent volunteer experiences. Volunteer work opens

doors to build character, teamwork, and balance in life while providing on-going training to

upgrade your skills.
