How You Can Help
Could this be you? If so, the Centre for Living with Dying and the grieving persons in our community need you!

The Centre for Living with Dying invites all persons wanting an enriching, heart-opening experience to join our dynamic Volunteer Program. Support someone in grief by lending open ears and a compassionate presence - and the gift that you will be giving to others will take you on a rewarding journey beyond your imagination.

 

The Centre for Living with Dying's Volunteer Program is truly the "heartbeat" of the agency, and will offer the following to you as one of its members:
  • Extensive education on the process of grief, life-threatening illness, loss, and trauma
  • Initial and ongoing training on supporting those in grief
  • Dynamic and inspiring weekly inservices to assist and support you and the work that you are doing
  • Special interest training (group facilitation, public speaking an behalf of the Centre, supporting seniors or HIV+ persons, working with children, etc.)
  • Enriching biannual weekend retreats

We welcome you to give yourself a gift by giving and become one of the treasured "heartbeats"' of The Centre for Living with Dying. What you gain from volunteering at the Centre and opening your heart to others creates ripples throughout our community, our state, our country and our world.
