As much or as little as you'd like to give. For example, volunteering at a Kindie event may involve helping with tickets and cleanup, which takes just over an hour. Joining a committee typically requires a monthly meeting and assisting with tasks like booking performers or managing communications. Board members also meet monthly to support committees and volunteers. Attend a Monthly Community Meeting or contact us for an informal chat to see what suits you best.
