What does a Volunteer Centre do?
The United Way Volunteer Centre is a service of the United Way of Cambridge and North Dumfries. We act as a liaison between residents looking to volunteer and the organizations in the community that have those volunteer opportunities.

In addition to connecting the general public with volunteer opportunities, we also help to strengthen the capacity of local non-profit organizations.  We offer a membership for organizations that focuses on 4 main services:

Volunteer Recruitment & Referral
Volunteer Recognition
Training Opportunties for Non-Profit staff and volunteers
Promotion of Volunteerism & the Voluntary Sector
