The ongoing response to COVID-19 pandemic underscores Canadians’ deep capacity to step up and support others in need. In these challenging times, the tireless and invaluable work of volunteers is especially important to recognize.

During National Volunteer Week (Sunday, April 19 to Saturday, April 25), Ontario Tech University celebrates and thanks its many volunteers, including the university’s Board of Governors, students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members. Throughout the academic year, they contribute their time and resources to serve our community in countless ways. The university accomplishes so much more, thanks to their dedication and generosity.

By supporting key university initiatives or helping with on-campus events and varsity sports, our volunteers contribute to an enriched student experience and a welcoming environment for all.
