Canadians over 50 are representing a growing force of volunteers as the baby boomers retire earlier, and retirement years are becoming almost as long as work years. 

On January 11th 2019, Age Friendly Hamilton is hosting a Senior Volunteer Fair! Click the link for more information: coahamilton.ca/2017/10/01/hcoa-10th-annual-report/

Volunteering is a great way to: 
  • Put free time to good use. 
  • Meet new people. 
  • Cultivate personal growth. 
  • Gain new experiences. 
  • Take on new challenges. 
  • Feel good and build self-esteem. 
  • Fulfill the need to be needed. 
  • Take pride in sharing your knowledge and abilities. 
  • Keep your body active. 
  • Keep your mind active. 
  • Stay healthy. 
  • Have fun! 
What Do You Have to Give? 
  • Time 
  • Experience 
  • Wisdom & Perspective
  • Patience and freedom from distraction
