Programme de bénévolat
Le programme de bénévolat vise à développer un réseau de bénévoles qui peuvent contribuer activement aux activités du CRCBV.
Qu’il s’agisse de briser l’isolement social et de se faire des amis, d’offrir une occasion de redonner à la communauté, de pratiquer l’anglais et/ou le français, de compléter des heures de bénévolat au secondaire et d’acquérir une expérience de travail ou de participer à un travail pertinent et valorisant, il existe des possibilités de bénévolat avec le Centre. Ce programme fait concorder les besoins des bénévoles avec les besoins du Centre.
Veuillez remplir le formulaire de demande de bénévolat et communiquer avec Catherine cmageau@crcbv.ca si vous avez des questions.
