Fundraising Volunteer
Events Volunteer
Delta Bingo at St. Clair and Keele holds open two-hour time-slots, often late in the evening or on weekends for St. Michael’s Homes volunteers for very light duty. The Ontario Lottery & Gaming commission reimburses St. Michael’s Homes very handsomely for this.
These extra funds help us to supply bedding and personal items for our residential clients, workbooks and materials for our program participants, and even staff training as we constantly review and update our services. The return on your investment of time is very high, and generates consistent revenue for our work.
All volunteers receive:
-
an in-person orientation to our work
-
a crested shirt to identify St. Michael’s Homes
-
transit fare to and from Delta Bingo
-
regular check-in with our staff
-
our agency newsletter
-
VIP invitation to special events
Help to hold monthly recreational events for our clients that break the cycle of loneliness and provide crucial opportunities for socialization with others – including you. We hold barbecues, seasonal parties, trivia nights, and other theme-events.
These events lighten the spirits of those doing the hard, brave work of recovering from addictions. All food and supplies are provided. If you have additional skills or ideas to offer that would benefit clients please feel free to reach out and make a suggestion for an activity or event that you would like to organise.
