"We are a non-profit that has been providing outdoor-based camps for ages 5-12 and other programs in the Tri-Cities since 2019. Our goal is to empower and inspire youth and create community. We are always looking for kind, patient, and respectful people to volunteer. We hope that our strongest volunteers eventually become staff.
Our activities at camp include swimming, boating, active games, sports, table games, arts and crafts, talent shows, and more based on the interests of participants. Our out-trips include places such as White Pine Beach, the Coquitlam River, Zone Bowling, Crash Crawly's (when heavy rain is forecast), and pools, parks, and playgrounds throughout the Tri-Cities.
In the summer, we are also offering camps in Burnaby, New Westminster, Vancouver West Side, Richmond, Ridge Meadows, North Vancouver, Langley, and Surrey."
If you are looking for a fun place to get volunteer hours or potentially explore a future career, this sounds fun, doesn't it? They are currently recruiting for Spring Break.

12/6/2025 |  | | | | More info | No | The Snow Angel program attempts to unite people who need help clearing their adjacent City sidewalks of snow, with eager volunteers from our community who want to help. When it snows, City crews clear our roadways and property owners clear their sidewalks, driveways/ walkways (includes city adjacent sidewalks) - all in an effort to keep Coquitlam moving. But for some members of our community, particularly seniors, moving snow is a difficult task. Snow Angels will respond to requests made to the City by those who are unable to shovel their own adjacent City sidewalk due to physical disabilities or restrictions. Must be 16+, Coquitlam resident in adequate physical shape and capable of clearing snow.
Commitment: 1-2 homes per individual each session; the volunteer term will run all of 2025 - 2026 winter season, with requests being weather dependent.
