Volunteers needed to support LGH Foundation with fun

For those who love the joy of the upcoming holidays, the LGH Foundation has a great opportunity to have fun, raise funds for the Foundation and spread the joy of the holidays, one gift at a time.

The Foundation is looking for plenty of volunteers for its Holiday Gift Wrap Centre at Park Royal Mall from December 6 – December 24. All proceeds raised from the Wrap Centre will help support the LGH NOW campaign to build a new Outpatient Care Centre and a contemporary Atrium – the new heart of LGH.

“We’re looking for friendly and enthusiastic volunteers to sign up for 4-hour shifts on weekdays and weekends,” says Tricia McLaren, Fund Development Coordinator for the Foundation. “We’re encouraging folks to sign up for as many shifts as they’re able to do and welcome everyone to also invite your friends to join you by signing up for shifts together.”

Gift wrapping volunteers will be responsible for:

  • showing up to their shift on time
  • helping customers choose appropriate paper and ribbons
  • ensuring the safekeeping of client gifts
  • accepting donations according to pre-determined donation guidelines

Gift wrapping training and orientations will be held during the week of Dec. 1. Those volunteers interested in signing up for shifts can do that at: http://lghgiftwrapping.eventbrite.com

Thank you for helping us wrap for a good cause this holiday season!
