Your safety is important to us
Maintaining a social distance of 2 meters or 6 feet is required under the Health Protection Act Order – and is the best way to manage community spread of COVID-19. Volunteer opportunities posted here must adhere to this directive.
We encourage everyone to stay up-to-date with the latest public health information through Nova Scotia’s COVID-19 site, as well as Volunteer Canada’s COVID-19 site.
