Volunteer with YOU

Message from the Executive Director

Since 1982 volunteers have contributed their time, skills and energy to help local youth build positive lives. Volunteers then, and now, know that many youth need a 'hand up' to reach their potential. Volunteering is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Investing in youth and strong communities go hand-in-hand.

Every year we serve thousands of youth in London and Middlesex County. The need for volunteers continues. We recognize and appreciate that your time is valuable and that your skills are special. We do our best to match volunteers with volunteer opportunities.

When you volunteer with Youth Opportunities Unlimited you help youth in London and Middlesex County build positive futures, you make a valuable contribution to your community and you build your network, enhance your skills and meet others who share your interests and passions. Volunteering is social networking. Volunteers enhance our ability to accomplish our goals by expanding our workforce, our community connections and by raising our profile.

If you want to learn more about volunteering with Youth Opportunities Unlimited, have questions or ideas please contact Karen Laverty, YAC Team Leader karenlyou.on.ca

On behalf of the youth we serve, we thank all our volunteers for their commitment and for sharing their valuable time and skills.

Yours truly,

Steve Cordes
Executive Director

“ As a member of Kiwanis I have been involved with YOU for several years. I will gladly continue to work with them as a community volunteer because they never fail to impress me with their ability to reach out to the young people who come through their doors looking for help. They listen, they care and they provide solutions. Youth Opportunities Unlimited helps put the shine on London. ” - Sharon Lessard
