About Unity Volunteers

Building stronger communities since 2015

Unity Volunteers is a community-driven organization dedicated to bringing people together to address local needs and create positive change. Our approach combines grassroots action with strategic partnerships to maximize our impact.

Founded in 2015, we've grown from a small group of dedicated individuals to a thriving network of over 5,000 volunteers across Manitoba. Our growth reflects our commitment to inclusive volunteering that welcomes people of all backgrounds and abilities.

Our mission is to connect passionate volunteers with meaningful opportunities that make a real difference in our communities. We believe that everyone has something valuable to contribute, and we work to match volunteers with roles that utilize their unique skills and interests.

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." – Helen Keller

Our Community Impact

Transforming lives through collective action

At Unity Volunteers, we believe in the power of collective action to transform communities. Our volunteers don't just provide services – they build relationships and create lasting change that strengthens the social fabric of Winnipeg.

Last year alone, our volunteers contributed over 25,000 hours of service across 120 different projects throughout Winnipeg. This represents an estimated value of over $500,000 in volunteer time, but the true impact goes far beyond what can be measured in dollars.

From revitalizing public spaces to supporting vulnerable populations, our volunteers are making a tangible difference every day. We focus on sustainable solutions that address root causes of community challenges, not just symptoms.
