Volunteer
 
Like to be involved in the Association of Neighbourhood Houses of BC?

Interested in helping one of our many programs or services?

Want to give back to your neighbourhood?

Join us at any one of our eight Neighbourhood Houses or Sasamat Camp for a wonderful volunteer experience. We're always looking for new volunteers. Not only do we need you but you can also gain valuable experience while improving the lives of others. Every volunteer contributes to the success of our programs. Last year, volunteers contributed more than 40,000 hours in one house alone.

Staff at each of the Neighbourhood Houses can connect you with positions that will match your interests and availability.

In the words of our volunteers…

“The House is such a great place to learn, I’m now actually leading the program – it’s my home way from home”

Some of the volunteer positions available include:
clerical, reception, marketing, special events, arts, youth groups, children’s programs, senior’s programs, driving, outdoor sports and recreation, bingo, companions, translation and so much more…

We are just phone call or an email away - Contact the following people at each House for volunteer opportunities.

  ANHBC Info
 
  • Did you know?
    • Vancouver's first Neighbourhood House grew out of the Alexandra Orphanage, one of the province's first non-profit societies. In 1938, the facility was closed and re-opended a couple of months later as Alexandra Neighbourhood House.
    • Incorporated in 1894, the Association of Neighbourhood Houses was the 36th non-profit society in BC. Since then, our 117 year old Association has grown into an organization of eight Neighbourhood Houses and an Outdoor Centre.
    • ANHBC's NH's and Camps serve more than 100,000 people a year, or 17% of the population of Vancouver - that's half of the Translink passenger rides on any given day!
