We appreciate all volunteers!

If you just have a few hours to give throughout the year, then an event volunteer would be perfect for you. Event volunteers help out at our specific events during the year. 

Special Olympics NWT hosts fundraising and community events throughout the year. The events operate because of all the volunteer support. This is a great opportunity to meet new people, make a difference and have a fun time!

We currently partner with Law Enforcement Torch Run NWT to run:

Freezin' for a reason polar Plunge (SPring)
 

If you want to support Special Olympics NWT (SONWT) in a non-sport manner, we are looking for some helping hands. Giving back to SONWT you get self fulfillment, support and appreciation. Your effort and time is surely noticed because we are a small organization. Non-sport volunteers support SONWT and athletes in numerous ways. 

Examples may include; 

  • Taking pictures at the sport programs and events
  • Collecting cans and bottles, and donating the earned money at the Yellowknife Bottle Deport using the drop and go system
  • Fundraise and donate to SONWT  

If you have an idea or interest in supporting Special Olympics NWT, please send an email to Sport Program Coordinator: sport@sonwt.ca. We look forward to hearing from you.

Send an email to sport@sonwt.ca if you would like to be an events volunteer.
