Volunteering

Non-profit organizations

For volunteer opportunities in Yellowknife, please contact community organizations directly or come to the Community Showcase event in September to speak to representatives from 50+ organizations in person.

Volunteering with the City of Yellowknife

Volunteers are occasionally sought to assist with programs and events and sit on project-specific committees.  Watch for advertisements about these opportunities.

Year-round opportunities:

• Adopt-A-Street: help keep Yellowknife's streets litter-free by adopting a street or area.
• Snow Angels: neighbours helping neighbours keep their sidewalks and driveways free of snow and ice! 
• Special Events: assist with crafts at the 4 holiday skates, with various stations on Canada Day, lighting candles for Pumpkin Lane and for other events periodically. Please email the Special Events Coordinator or call 920-5676 to volunteer.
• Volunteer Recognition Event: an opportunity for community organizations to recognize their volunteers.
