BE-Friends Program Volunteer Buddy Application Form
The purpose of the Be Friends program is to create a platform for the connection of individuals of all abilities in relationship. You are applying for the role of a Volunteer Buddy - if a good fit for the program, Volunteer Buddy applicants are each matched with a Friend!

The amount of time Volunteer Buddies and Friends  see each other, the things they do together in the community, and the length of their friendship (long term versus short term matches) are based on the wants, needs, and life circumstances of both Volunteer Buddies and Friends.  

If you have any questions about the program please email Donnamarie Dunk at info@bridgestobelonging.ca
