Parkinson Canada is recruiting two Volunteer Event Co-Coordinators to help lead our 2025 Durham SuperWalk!

Superwalk is the largest annual fundraiser for Parkinson Canada, an important and ever-expanding resource for Canadians living with Parkinson’s and their care partners. SuperWalk Coordinators play a pivotal role in raising awareness and funds for people living with Parkinson’s. They champion and lead the coordination of SuperWalk in communities, from start to finish, with support from Parkinson Canada staff. 

Volunteer Event Coordinators are integral to a successful event, and perform tasks such as:

• Sourcing local sponsorships and donations
• Spreading awareness about the walk in the community
• Ensuring the funds collected the day of the event are properly recorded and deposited
• Attending the walk on the event day to ensure it runs smoothly

If this sounds like a role you'd be interested in, please email volunteer@parkinson.ca - we'd love to connect with you!

We could not do what we do without our amazing volunteers. Join a dynamic and diverse group of people who are making an important contribution to improving the lives of people with kidney disease.

Volunteering with us is a positive and rewarding experience. Use your skills and talents to help others while exploring opportunities for personal growth in a respectful and supportive environment.

The Kidney Foundation of Canada is the national volunteer organization committed to reducing the burden of kidney disease through funding and stimulating innovative research; providing education and support; promoting access to quality healthcare; and increasing public awareness and commitment to advancing kidney health and organ donation.

We are looking for event day volunteers for our 2025 Kidney Walk that will be responsible for registering walk participants, set-up/take-down of the event, and route marshaling on Sunday September 28th, at Lakeview Park (55 Lakeview Park Ave) from 8am-1pm.

Why this is a great opportunity for you: Opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those with kidney disease; personal growth and professional development; hours towards community involvement; networking with volunteers, employees, and other professionals across Ontario.

Committee members take ownership of fundraising and contribute significantly to TCEP corporate sponsorship, personal giving, fundraising events and other campaigns. They leverage personal or professional networks, practice event planning skills, and help get people excited about healthy wholesome food! The committee convenes once every 4 to 6 weeks, and members are expected to attend at least 75% of those meetings.

 We believe that food has the power to bring people together!
