Our Volunteers in the Spotlight
The Little Brothers organization could not accomplish its mission without the unwavering commitment of all its volunteers. We are blessed by their faithful and caring presence within our extended family.
Each year we hold a national award ceremony to recognize their tremendous contribution to the cause of social isolation of seniors. This ceremony provides the opportunity to come together, share some special moments, and show our gratitude.

Little Brothers acknowledges the commitment of its volunteers
At Little Brothers, we recognize the invaluable contribution of volunteers year round. Thank you to these exceptional people for their availability, their support, their generosity, their know-how, and their dedication to seniors.
National Volunteer Week, held in April of each year, provides an opportunity for community organizations to host events across the province to recognize and acknowledge the contributions of volunteers.
During this week, Little Brothers showcases its volunteers through communication campaigns and publications that highlight the work of those who take action throughout the year to bring joy to our Great Friends.
