About The Cinderella Project
The Cinderella Project works to motivate vulnerable Metro Vancouver students make healthy choices, stay invested in life, connected to school and meet the milestone of high school graduation. 

This program was rooted in the fundamental beliefs that inclusivity is the foundation of a successful community. Every one of the students that we support have experienced marginalization, discrimination, isolation and bullying/violence. These youth are experiencing deep impacts on their mental health, often connected to traumas relating to racism, homophobia, transphobia, cultural intolerance, cognitive and physical disabilities coupled with severe socioeconomic disparities. They don’t feel worth, understood or hopeful. We work hard though mentorship to create a safe non-judgmental, unconditional support network to help these students know that they are deeply valued, understood and included in our communities and that they are supported in their journey to high school graduation (for many they are the first in their family to ever do so). 

We know that education is an essential key in being able to break cycles of poverty and unlock opportunities for a positive future.

Our volunteers need to be patient, gentle and positive while recognizing our student’s need for privacy and confidentiality.
Hello ! Welcome to the Cinderella Project's Volunteer Application form. 

Thank you so much for your interest in volunteering with The Cinderella Project and helping vulnerable youth in our local communities. We support students throughout Greater Vancouver BC. 

We are grateful to the many people from our communities who are currently volunteering with us or waiting to volunteer. 

We generally have two volunteer opportunities per year - our Grad Celebration Event, usually held between Feb and April, and a Comfort & Joy box event in December. We do occasionally have other needs for volunteers and may send out ad hoc emails asking for volunteers at other times through the year.  

As the Cinderella Project works closely with vulnerable youth, it is important that we screen all applicants thoroughly.  Please input your information below so that we can start the application process.  

With thanks from,
The Cinderella Project Volunteer Committee

How did you hear about the Cinderella Project? If you heard about the project from a Cinderella volunteer or a friend,  please let us know their full name. *
Have you volunteered with the Cinderella Project before? *
Why do you want to volunteer with the Cinderella Project? *
Last year you attended high school?

To protect our students privacy, we ask that everyone, who will be volunteering directly with students, have been out of school for 4-5 years. The main reason for this is to reduce the chance of you knowing one of the students from high school.
 *
Describe in detail any other volunteer experiences you have. *
What is your current (or past) occupation? Or if you're a student, what are you studying?  We ask this, as often we have a student that is very interested in a certain career path and perhaps we could arrange it so that they have the opportunity to speak with you (if that's okay) on event day. *
List your hobbies, skills, interests and experiences.  It is great if sometimes there is a student that shares you interests and/or hobbies.  We might be able to give them an opportunity to speak to you (if that's okay) on event day.
We have additional volunteer needs aside from our Graduation Celebration Event.  Are you interested in helping with any of the following? *
Required
If you are interested in helping with admin work, please let us know any particular experience/skills you think might be relevant. Examples - familiar with spreadsheets, financial tools, websites, social media, etc.
Do you speak any language other than English (including sign language)? This is helpful as we have many students whose preferred language is not English.
Do you know a person or business who might like to donate new products to the Cinderella Project for the student “care packages”?  (For example – socks, hair products, deodorant, granola bars...  We would be happy to talk to them about what we can offer in exchange - tax receipts, names on our website etc.)

The Government of Canada recognizes the importance of volunteers and the valuable contributions of non-profit organizations to Canadian society and our way of life. The Government recognizes its obligation to protect citizens, particularly those who are more vulnerable.  The Government is working with non-profit organizations to help ensure that their volunteers who deal with vulnerable persons have been properly screened. The Cinderella Project has a responsibility to appropriately screen every volunteer who will have access to vulnerable persons. Acceptance is based on your screening, including your references.
