Benefits of Volunteering
CNIB was built on the work of volunteers: the leadership of Colonel Edwin Baker, who lost his sight in World War I, and six other dedicated volunteers led to the founding of CNIB in 1918.
Volunteering can be a rewarding experience in so many ways. Through volunteering with CNIB, you have an opportunity to:
- Make a difference in your community
- Support a cause you believe in
- Put your skills and experience to work
- Learn new skills
- Make new friends and develop professional contacts
- Combat social isolation and reduce stress
