At the moment, we are not currently placing new volunteers. However, we would love to add you to our waitlist and contact you once we start taking new volunteers again. If you would like to join our waitlist, please fill in the application form and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
As a volunteer, you will play a key part of our mission to provide compassionate care and vibrant communities for our Residential Care customers. Your unique talents and interests can brighten someone's day in countless ways, from sharing stories to engaging in hobbies together.
At Juniper, we cherish the diversity and passion our volunteers bring, and we strive to create meaningful connections that honour our core values of Welcome, Respect, Compassion, Hope, and Courage.
