Today, in the heart of the financial district at King and Bay - Volunteer Canada and Power of the Hour took our message of celebrating volunteerism to the downtown Toronto public. Armed with signs, balloons, schwag, and a camera crew - we took to the streets to have conversations about volunteering, have people pledge their volunteer hours for 2010 and say thank you to the volunteers who help shape their lives 365 days a year.
National Volunteer Week starts this Sunday April 18 and the King and Bay takeover helped us kick off what promises to be a week long celebration of the effort, skills and time given by the 12.5 million volunteers across Canada.
