Together with members of Volunteer Canada’s Board of Directors, the team of 32 volunteers strong helped renovate the Clubhouse’s outdoor garden and learning space. The corporate leaders are all members of the Corporate Council on Volunteering, a Volunteer Canada program that has grown to become one of the largest corporate volunteerism initiatives in the country. The Council aims to encourage and enhance employer-supported volunteerism throughout the corporate community and calls on businesses of all sizes to follow their example."
