Volunteer Job Description

Be part of the movement: Join us in making a difference

At Special Olympics Ontario, volunteers are the backbone of our organization. We rely on volunteers at every level to ensure that every athlete receives quality sports training and competition experiences. Our volunteers inspire, guide, and coach our athletes, fostering a community where inclusion and participation thrive. Through volunteering, not only do our athletes benefit, but volunteers often find their lives transformed by the experience.
