Lethbridge Volunteer Opportunities
Since 1992, the Lethbridge Family Services Angel Tree Christmas campaign’s goal has been to ensure that every child has the opportunity to experience the joy of Christmas. We collect new, unwrapped toys throughout the year, and distribute those toys in Christmas gift bundles to children and youth in the Lethbridge area whose families need help during the holidays.
United Way is seeking new faces for its Board of Directors!
United Way’s purpose is to raise funds to support essential local programs at United Way Partner Agencies. They provide grants to programs that target poverty reduction, building healthy families and strong communities, and helping children and youth be all they can be.
United Way works with local companies to facilitate payroll deduction donations for employees. Many small donations over time add up to BIG change. United Way also accepts donations from generous individuals and corporations to fuel change through collective impact.
The Board of Directors is proud of United Way’s impact on people, and in communities across South Western Alberta.
If you are passionate, and love to see positive changes where you live, read on!
United Way Board Directors are dedicated and skilled in their work. The Board assumes both a mandatory role, based on legal requirements of boards of directors, and a chosen role, based on the board model it has elected for itself.
United Way is specifically looking for individuals with finance and legal background to join the board. Other individuals are welcome to apply as vacant positions are available.

Each year, the YWCA Lethbridge & District hosts our Stockings of Hope campaign. This Christmas campaign helps women and their families who are in need experience the joy of the Christmas season.
These women and children are either currently using YWCA programs and services or have used them over the past year, including YWCA Harbour House, Hestia Homes, Harbour House Support Services, and the Safe Visitation program.
No matter which stocking the community chooses to fill, they’ll be providing much needed help to someone in need in our community! In 2022, we were able to help over 70 individuals and in 2023, increased that number to 105! In 2024, we would love to help over 150 participants enjoy the holiday season no matter their personal circumstances.
Volunteer mentors are a crucial aspect of our program. We have space for 70 students but only have 4 teachers on staff. It’s impossible for those teachers to build close connections with all the students. Which is where volunteers come in! During our after school program we need volunteers to build relationships with the students and help them participate in the daily program. Our program runs Monday-Thursday from 3:30pm-5:30pm. We ask volunteers to choose one day/week to commit to helping out.
The first hour of our program students are arriving, eating snack and playing games which is the perfect time to visit and check-in with them. The second hour is dependent on the day. We have group music lessons, theory games, music appreciation activities, crafts, wide games, practices or ensemble class. While experience in music is an asset for volunteers, there are lots of other activities that we need support with too.
Having an older mentor has a huge impact on the success and wellbeing of a child. You can make a positive difference in the life of a child at Branches!
Volunteers are needed for shifts on Thursday, November 28th.
Nord-Bridge Seniors Centre is looking for an attention to detail and creative individual to help in decorating Christmas Trees and more for our Winter Wonderland Walk Through planned for December 13th! We will be decorating the week of November 25th-December 5th.
