"I Am Your Children’s Aid." Children’s Aid Society of Toronto celebrates... National Volunteer Week April 12 to 18, 2015 Volunteers play an essential role in helping us reach our vision of, “A city where children are safe, families are strong and communities are supported.”

"I Am Your Children’s Aid." My Story “Over the years I have driven over 700,000 kilometres in the service of children and families, transporting them to and from access visits, foster homes, summer camps and medical appointments. As a volunteer driver, I get to meet people from many different places, professions and nationalities. I get great joy being around children and being able to contribute to their well-being... it helps keep me young. I hope to continue doing this for a very long time.”

"I Am Your Children’s Aid." Did you Know? Children and youth are more likely to become engaged citizens if they see someone they admire helping others, including their parents. That one person can make a difference, that you are important enough to have an impact on someone or something else. Statistical Source - Canadian Survey of Giving, Volunteering & Participating, 2007

"I Am Your Children’s Aid." Our Story We have approximately 400 volunteers who help make the lives of children, youth and families better through their contributions as Special Friends to a parent or child, as tutors and drivers, at supervised access visits and special events as well as being Donation Room volunteers. Thanks to each and every one of our volunteers for their time, dedication and efforts in improving the lives of the families, youth and children that we serve.
