SUMMARY:National Volunteer Week
DESCRIPTION:The theme for National Volunteer Week 2025 is Volunteers Make Waves. It highlights the power\, impact and importance of individual and collective volunteer efforts across Canada. Like a wave\, volunteering is movement building. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWater is in constant motion\, always flowing\, shifting\, and transforming with every powerful wave or quiet ripple. And so is each volunteer’s contribution toward creating impact in our communities. \nEach individual volunteer contribution\, big or small\, creates momentum and has the power to influence and inspire\, joining a wave of positive change. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuilding on the tides sent out before us\, waves swell with each generation of volunteers. Our actions ripple out to broader community benefits\, like improved well-being\, increased social cohesion\, and enhanced resilience in the face of change and uncertainty.  \nEach wave is unique and brings something vibrant and new to the ecosystem.  \nNational Volunteer Week is a chance to highlight the value of volunteers and their positive impact on society. You can access Volunteer Canada’s Campaign Kit for National Volunteer Week 2025 here.
