Volunteer Opportunities

Benefits of Volunteering with Us

Here at the Brown Homestead, we believe that organizations thrive when the staff and volunteers are provided opportunities for growth, creativity and meaningful intellectual contributions. We believe in the “campfire rule,” and we wish to ensure that anyone who works for and with The Brown Homestead leaves us better off than we found them.

Vibrant Culture

How to Volunteer

Start by completing an application form expressing your interests and outlining your experience.

Step 1: Fill out an application

Let’s get to know each other better! Once you fill out an application form, we’ll contact you to set up a brief Meet & greet, with the option to connect in person, over the phone, or via Zoom. This will provide an opportunity for you to ask any questions and for us to get a better sense of what volunteer opportunities would be the best fit for you!

Step 2: Schedule a Meet & Greet

Once you have completed your application, met with the team, and are ready to get started, you will be invited to attend an orientation session. Our next orientation is planned for March 2025.

Step 3: Come to an Orientation

We would love to have you join our volunteer team and we hope to see you out at The Brown Homestead soon!

If you have any questions please send us an email at volunteers@thebrownhomestead.ca.
