Whether you are a non profit organization, a corporation or an individual who has made a difference, we’d love to hear your story about how volunteering has impacted you! Tell us what ‘SPARKED’ you about the experience and made you feel good. It will help others to see how great volunteering can be too! You can submit a written story, a photo or a video!

Please note:

  • To submit a story you must join SPARK Ontario
