Involved

Involved is a program that connects youth with meaningful volunteer experiences, volunteer trainings, and leadership opportunities, and connects nonprofits with a database of youth looking for volunteer hours.

From volunteer trainings to guided volunteer experiences, Involved’s goal is to intentionally create community and encourage collaboration between nonprofits and youth in Abbotsford.

How It Works

✅ Sign Up – Youth 12-18 can register below to get on our volunteer mailing list.
✅ Get Opportunities – We collect volunteer openings from nonprofits and send them straight to your inbox.
✅ Go Make a Difference! – Pick an opportunity, connect with the organization, and start volunteering.

Opportunities range from one-time events to ongoing opportunities, and even some guided volunteer events. During these events, our youth workers will take a group of up to 30 youth to a volunteer experience and help facilitate their experience – this will be especially great for younger youth or youth who have never volunteered before.

For Organizations

Involved is a youth volunteer database designed to help youth get involved in volunteer opportunities in Abbotsford. Youth are sent emails containing all the details of volunteer events. Volunteer positions may be a one-time event or may be an ongoing volunteer opportunity.


How it works:

  1. We collect basic information from youth wishing to volunteer and add them to our extensive database.
  2. We connect with community organizations and gather information on available volunteer opportunities.
  3. We send the opportunities to the youth on our database and have them contact you directly.
  4. You take it from there!

How to join:

Fill out our organization sign up form. Someone from the AYC will be in touch to discuss your volunteer needs.
