Thanks for your interest in volunteering! The Squamish Welcome Centre is a community-oriented nonprofit organization that supports connection to community and provides and connects people with programs, services, and resources. Our programs are open to all and often designed with the needs of immigrants, refugees, and newcomers in mind.

If you haven't already been to our storefront, please come visit! We're located at 38027 & 38029 Cleveland Ave. If you're not comfortable volunteering in-person or would need some accommodations, we'd still love to have you. Please indicate on the form below what works for you.
