We need your help!

There are many ways you can help make a difference:

  • Help out at the office. We have mailings to stuff, stamps to stick, photos to file, envelopes to seal, media calls to make, and our database to keep up-to-date!

  • Work at an event. Be part of the team. Each year JDRF needs a virtual army of volunteers to make our fabulous events a success!

  • Serve on a committee. Help develop the Chapter’s communications strategy. Be part of the Public Outreach Program. Serve on our Corporate Recruitment or Development committees. Coordinate a TELUS Walk site. Help organize a Gala program. Solicit items for our event auctions. Our committees give our Chapter its sparkle!

  • Participate in our Government Relations Program. Let your voice be heard! Sign up to be an advocate and contact your Member of Parliament about diabetes-related policies.

  • Join our Third-party Events Program. Hold a party for JDRF! Coordinate a garage sale or a special shopping day with the dollars raised benefiting JDRF and diabetes research. The only limit is your imagination!

  • Donate through your business. Make a gift of your printing or design services. Contribute your photography skills. Use your public relations firm to help get press for a Chapter event. Donate a company product or an item for our live and silent auctions. Make your restaurant, golf course, or other facility available at no charge for JDRF events.
