Our volunteers make a difference! Right now we need to fill several areas on our GARDEN TOUR
The Garden Tour is our major fundraiser, and is May 29, 2022. We are currently looking for:
Through May, people willing to pre-sell tickets at one of two outlets – roughly 2-3 hours per day
Day before (May 28) a few muscles with trucks to pick up tents, tables and chairs donated by community organizations and set up at the various gardens on the Tour. Will also require take down after the event (4:30 on May 29), and returned.
Day of event (May 29) a few Garden Greeters (4 hour shifts, either am or pm); people to set up/take down signage at gardens, a few for some parking directing.
Miscellaneous tasks from now until the event including putting up posters around Cowichan. Contact gardentour@cowichanfamilylife.org or give us a call.
Volunteer Counsellors
Our organization continues to be gifted with the most amazing, compassionate, caring individuals who, with inhouse training, are the backbone of what we do. If you are interested in the opportunity to support your community by becoming a volunteer counsellor, we encourage you to register for our Volunteer Counselling Training program. In exchange for a minimal fee for over 100 hours of class room instruction and training in a strength based, solution focused model of counselling, our volunteer counsellors provide 100 volunteer hours of counselling services back into the community. Call to find out more about this very practical and transferable skills building opportunity and how you can take that next step towards knowing yourself and others more deeply.
Fundraising Committee
Got some big ideas to help raise funds to support CFLA? Interested in running a smaller campaign? As with most non-profits, raising funds to keep the agency going is at the forefront of our goals. We are looking to create a fundraising committee to come up with creative ways to raise awareness and funds. If this is your passion please get in touch.
