Volunteer Opportunities

Who We Are
Since 2004, Kids Up Front Vancouver has provided experiences to children, youth, and families facing barriers in the Greater Vancouver area. Having access to local events (like hockey games and music performances) and activities (like arts and crafts workshops) gives a child a much-needed avenue to uplift their spirits and self-esteem. These experiences become the tools that can strengthen relationships between parents and their children, or teenagers and their counsellors; they provide an opportunity to help immigrant families integrate into the community; and they often mean a few hours of fun in lives that may be chaotic or troubled. Kids Up Front envisions a world in which every child has access to fun and enriching experiences because we believe every child should have what they need to not only survive but thrive and reach their full potential.

Sometimes we can use an extra hand to handle some of our operational tasks such as social media, program coordination, outreach, data entry, and more!

We encourage and appreciate interest from individuals belonging to equity seeking groups.
