Mission statement: Best Buddies is a national charity that helps provide meaningful friendships for children and adults with intellectual disabilities and Autism. Through our program, participants are matched in one-to-one friendships and spend time enjoying the same experiences most people take for granted – such as going for coffee, watching a movie, or simply enjoying the company of a friend. Our program is operating in more than 400 elementary schools, high schools, universities, and colleges across Canada.
Volunteer description: We are looking for students to join our program as Associate Members. Associate Members are our dedicated volunteers who help to organize and attend group activities.
