Caring adults willing to devote themselves to helping young people are essential to bringing about true change in North York. A steady commitment of a couple of hours a week is the foundation for this change.

If you haven’t already, catch a glimpse of some members of our volunteer team.
You don’t need to be young, ‘with it’, an all-pro sports star or a professional counsellor (not that you can’t be!). You just need a heart to relationally engage with youth, and a desire to share your own story of walking with Jesus and foster young people’s whole person development.

We are looking for volunteers in all of our current programs as well as within our partnerships. (Even in our sports programs, it’s not your athletic ability that counts; it’s showing up every week and talking on the sidelines that counts.)

Typically, we look for at least a one-year commitment of weekly involvement in a ministry setting, with the opportunity to engage with youth one-on-one as well. You will receive youth ministry training and be cared for by one of our YU North York Staff Team members.

If you are interested in volunteering or have more questions, contact us (Select “Join Our Team: Volunteer” from the drop-down menu). We’d love to hear from you.
