Helping Hands is creating a youth advisory council for the Halton and Peel region, and we are looking for young, visionary youth leaders to aid us in our mission. The main goal of this council is to empower and inspire a large network of youth to improve the conditions in their communities, through increasing rates of civic engagement and volunteering.

As a member of our council, you will be involved in creating or directing programs to promote activity and involvement amongst young people, as well as implementing new ideas to promote engagement in our local communities. We believe that this is a great opportunity to uplift the youth who are living in marginalized circumstances within the Halton and Peel regions, while promoting civic engagement and volunteering. This is not only a chance to help others, but it is also an opportunity for anyone who is looking to gain personal development and gain real career skills.

Potential areas of work include:

Marketing and fundraising
Communications and Social Media
Community engagement
Design and Media

 

What we offer:

Personal development opportunities
Opportunities to develop real life skills
Confirmation of volunteer hours upon request
