Subject:        National Volunteer Week, April 16-22, 2023

National Volunteer Week (NVW) is April 16 to 22, 2023. This week is set aside each year to recognize and thank volunteers around the Township of Minden Hills and Canada for the time and energy they contribute to causes that benefit our communities. NVW is also an opportunity to promote the benefits of volunteering to individuals and society.

The National Volunteer Week theme for 2023, Volunteering Weaves us Together, reveals the importance of volunteering to the strength and vibrancy of our communities through the interconnected actions we take to support one another. These diverse forms of sharing our time, talent and energy strengthen the fabric of our community.

Through volunteering we experience our interconnectedness, making our lives more meaningful. Getting involved in various ways, we find friendship, develop trust, and link our relationships. Threading these connections, we come to belong as we contribute towards the same goals.

During National Volunteer Week 2023, the Township of Minden Hills would like to say thank you and celebrate the hundreds of hours our volunteers have dedicated to their local community. Your kindness, understanding and generosity weave our community together and make us stronger.
