This Christmas season, give some of your time to help those who truly need it.
CNIB is holding its annual Gift Wrap all through the month of December up until the 24th.
The month long gift wrapping event will take place at Bayshore Shopping Centre right here in Ottawa, and volunteers are needed to make it a success. All donations will go towards funds for the charity.
According to its website, “CNIB is a nationwide, community-based, registered charity committed to research, public education and vision health for all Canadians. CNIB provides the services and support necessary for people to enjoy a good quality of life while living with vision loss.”
Volunteers will be provided with training in how to wrap gifts properly at orientation sessions that will be held throughout the month of November. These aren’t mandatory, but promise to be lots of fun as well as help in improving gift wrapping skills.
Volunteers will be able to choose from shifts at various times, and each shift is three hours long. Volunteers are also needed on weekends, which is a perfect solution for those who can’t take time out during weekdays.
CNIB’s kiosk will be situated on the third floor of the mall, and volunteers are still needed to fill up shifts.
Group volunteering is also possible, with some shifts still requiring more than one person to fill up.
There’s no excuse for missing out, so get your schedule and book some shifts!
