Volunteer

United Way Sault Ste. Marie & Algoma District is addressing the root causes of poverty, working with multiple community partners on strategies which reduce the impact of low income on the health and well-being of individuals and families in our community.

Volunteers are at the heart of everything we do at United Way Sault Ste. Marie & Algoma District.

We are endlessly thankful for the dedicated individuals who step up to make a difference, whether it’s through supporting our events, assisting with programs, or sharing their unique talents.

Together, our volunteers help us create meaningful change and improve lives in our community.
