What is Community Volunteer Action?

We are a network of volunteering groups, where you:
discover the larger Hamilton community
discuss your volunteer experiences with other McMaster students
learn about and help address inner-city issues
make a significant difference where it is needed
gain valuable experience

This is a unique opportunity to volunteer with a group of McMaster students. Each week the facilitator of the group helps you find your way to the placement and also facilitates discussion of your volunteer experiences for 15 min. at the end of your service experience.
