The Timeraiser helps non-profit and voluntary organizations, large and small, connect with potential volunteers. We know Canadians in their 20s and 30s are one of the hardest demographics to reach. This is why we have put so much energy into ensuring the Timeraiser an easy way to connect with skilled and energetic volunteers. Participants attend the Timeraiser looking for ways to get involved in their community - this is where you come in! 

The night of the Timeraiser, two representatives from your organization attend, prepared with volunteer opportunities to discuss (we will provide an agency poster at your table). Participants in the room will bid volunteer time on the artwork on display. After having chatted with the organizations in the room, there will be many opportunities to get started on their pledge!

We strongly encourage you to bring skilled volunteer positions that will allow participants to create real impact in your organization.

Any charitable organization can apply online and submit an application.  A volunteer jury comprised of community members and Timeraiser volunteers who are well-versed in the local non-profit community will then select which agencies will participate at the Timeraiser.  

If you have any questions about the Timeraiser application process, please contact Amanda Grainger-Munday.

"A common question for Meal Exchange is ‘how do we accomplish so much with a staff of two and such a small budget?’  Our response has always been ‘through volunteers’.  By adopting the work that Framework is leading; the tracking and assessment of volunteer contributions-we will have the ability to measure the impact of volunteers in our organization and assess the complete cost, in financial and human capital, necessary to deliver our programming."
