2.0 COMMENTS
2.1 The Volunteer Resource Centre for Durham exists to foster, develop and sustain
growth in volunteerism in order to build strong and dynamic communities. The
goals of the organization are to promote volunteerism, to build capacity for
effective volunteering, to provide leadership on volunteerism issues and to
connect people with volunteer opportunities to serve.
2.2 The 1st Annual Youth Volleyball Tournament and Volunteer Fair will be used to
launch the Durham Region Youth Volunteer Corps project. The Volunteer Youth
Corps will recruit youth aged 14-24 to participate in small and large group
volunteer activities to meet community needs. These activities will allow youth to
gain essential skills in a safe, fun and supervised environment, while
demonstrating the positive contributions of youth in our society.
2.3 The October 28th event will be hosted in three venues across Durham - Port
Perry, Oshawa and Bowmanville at Clarington Central High School.
