Thank you for your group’s interest in volunteering with Phoenix Youth Programs! Whether you're a workplace team, school club, or community group, our group volunteer opportunities offer a meaningful way to connect, give back, and support youth and families in our community.

Please note that Phoenix has limited capacity to support large-scale volunteer projects throughout the year. While we do our best to accommodate as many groups as possible, submitting an application does not guarantee a volunteer placement. To increase the likelihood that we can host your group, we ask that you reach out at least 4–6 weeks in advance of your preferred volunteer date.

To help us find the most appropriate and impactful volunteer experience for your team, please complete the form below with as much detail as possible. If you have any questions about the process, feel free to contact Stephanie Sabean at ssabean@phoenixyouth.ca.
