Alberta’s volunteers are a powerful social investment creating an unparalleled quality of life. Volunteer Alberta is a provincial organization committed to building the capacity of the voluntary sector by strategically connecting leaders, organizations and networks to ensure Albertans are engaged in creating vibrant and progressive communities. A nonprofit organization, Volunteer Alberta has been working with Alberta communities and volunteer centres for the past 17 years. Volunteer Alberta offers Alberta’s essential nonprofit/voluntary sector organizations access to current information and resources, employee benefits (through OASSIS), best practices, insurance (through Community Guard), funding (through a partnership with the Wild Rose Foundation for Volunteer Week), communication tools, online photo gallery for use in newsletters and websites, professional development opportunities and a connection to other voluntary sector organizations.
