Volunteer Opportunities with Ontario Chapter
We are unique amongst national and international environmental organizations in that volunteers are truly us. Our volunteers head committees and campaigns, partake in research, teaching and advocacy, and participate in events. Numerous opportunities exist to make a difference while learning valuable skills through practical experience. Volunteering opportunities with the Ontario Chapter of the Sierra Club of Canada tend to be local or general (often spanning several local sites). Prospective volunteers are requested to become members of the Sierra Club. If you're not a member yet, please become a member! Every member, active or not, is a valuable and powerful addition to Sierra Club of Canada.
