As a volunteer, you will organize and host one or more get-together events for English-speaking men.  These events will promote men’s health and well-being and encourage the establishment of a supportive peer network among men in the local community.  All adult men, 18+, are welcome to participate. 

Your responsibilities:

• Determine the event, location, and date(s) at least one-month ahead of time with the Program Coordinator. You are responsible for overseeing all aspects of your chosen event(s) including managing reservations, setting up the location, overseeing all aspects during the event, including clean-up and lock up if using centre facilities.

• Be present during the entirety of the event to animate the event and help connect other English-speaking guys.
• Track how many people come and share this number with the Program Coordinator no less than one week after the event.
