ChangeTheWorld: Ontario Youth Volunteer Challenge

ChangeTheWorld – Ontario Youth Volunteer Challenge is a call to action for youth aged 14 to 18 years to volunteer through a wide variety of exciting community initiatives. The goal is to inspire youth to volunteer in our communities, develop new skills, and broaden their awareness of community service organizations. This year, 21 volunteer centres are participating across Ontario and we hope to, once again, surpass the goal of 10,000 youth volunteering for a minimum of three hours over the three weeks.
