Join Us!
Share the Bounty is focused on showing that sharing is caring. By sharing your time and efforts with your community, you’re showing that you care. We would not have many successful events if it weren’t for our dedicated and altruistic volunteers.
Becoming a Volunteer
A Volunteer is a member of our community who gives their time and talents to further the Vision and Mission of Share the Bounty and who receives no monetary gain in return.
Volunteers are seen as non-paid staff and are considered team members working along with the Board of Directors, Executive Members and other volunteers.
The screening process and requirements for Share the Bounty volunteers are as follows:
- Completion of a Volunteer Application Form to be forwarded to the Events & Community Relations Coordinator.
- A volunteer must be 16 years of age or older to work in the Direct Service area of Share the Bounty. Exceptions may be made with the approval of the Board of Directors. Volunteers under 16 and over the age of 16 may volunteer provided they fulfill the other requirements of volunteering and there are appropriate volunteer roles available. Volunteers who have not reached the age of 16 must submit written consent from their parent or guardian prior to volunteering.
- Successful completion of a Criminal Records check.
- Completion of an interview by the Events Manager and/or member of the Executive Team or Board of Directors. The purpose of the interview is to determine the experience, ability and suitability of the individual to perform work within Share the Bounty.
- Provision of two references.
- Commitment to meeting the minimum time requirements identified in relation to the chosen assignment or area of responsibility.
- Fulfillment of the requirements for the program's/event's needs in a timely, efficient, and effective manner.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Pamela Kelly, at pam@sharethebounty.info.
