Volunteers at Reach have been helping children reach their potential for over 50 years. The organization started in 1956 with parents volunteering their time and skills to start a small school in the community of Ladner for 10 children with special needs. Now we have grown to serving close 1,000 children each year with approximately 100 staff and a host of volunteers. Reach volunteers come from all walks of life: from young adults looking to gain new skills, busy executives who are passionate about making a difference, parents of children in Reach programs wanting to give back, to retired professionals offering their valuable skills to a worthy cause. If you are interested in making a difference in your community, please give us a call. We would love to have you join our team.

 

We appreciate your interest. Please see the opportunities listed below.
