Thankful to have the chance to explore this with my great colleagues @VolunteerCanada. Lots of conversation needed here and a broader movement to lift this up.
Volunteers enrich our daily lives, but volunteer rates are declining in the midst of a loneliness epidemic.
@VolunteerCanada says it's time for a National Action Strategy for Volunteerism to strengthen volunteer infrastructure and our communities.
