 Calgary Chamber of Voluntary Organizations

 

The high quality of life enjoyed in communities across Canada, including Calgary, is built on many of the programs, activities and services run by the nonprofits and charities that make up the voluntary sector. These include sports programs for our kids to conserve our natural treasures; services to help new immigrants settle in Calgary; training to give people the skills they need to fill gaps in the workforce; programs to help the homeless leave life on the street; and, arts and cultural activities for the whole community, to name a few.
