Why get involved
We value our volunteers and would like to welcome you to join our volunteer team at TCMH, with volunteer opportunities at Aldaview Services (New Hamburg), Greenwood Court (Stratford), and Nithview Community (New Hamburg).
We depend on generous volunteers for outreach and helping us connect with as many residents and supported individuals as possible. Our goal is always to have enough support to meet the varying needs of the people who lives in our Homes. Volunteers help us achieve this goal by giving their time and becoming a vital part of a team dedicated to Making Every Day Matter for our residents and clients in care.
At Greenwood Court and Nithview Community, some practical ways we are looking for volunteer support are:
- Assisting with activities such as crafts, bingo, or special events
- Facilitate an activity with your special talents: crafts, bingo, knitting, playing an instrument and/or singing
- Engaging residents in meaningful conversation and activity such as reading, reminiscing, or outdoor walks
- Welcoming residents to the dining rooms and assisting during meal service or serving refreshments for snack time
- Portering residents to activities, the dining room, or outdoor events
This list is not exhaustive!
