Host Program Update

The newest round of our Be-Friends and Family Friendship programs have begun, but there is still room for more volunteers!

Be-Friends matches volunteers with a newcomer based on common interests, and provides help and fun activities in bi-weekly events. Volunteers meet with their new friends once a week to help them adjust, do something fun, and talk about life in Victoria.

Family Friendship matches parents to other parents, and families to other families. Volunteers meet once a week with parents and their children from around the world, doing something fun in the city, and helping them and their children adjust.

These two programs run on a three-month term, and are our highest-rated Volunteer opportunity (rated by past volunteers), so don't miss out on the fun!

To sign up, contact Aviva at aviva@vircs.bc.ca, or 250-361-9433 x242.
