How to get involved:

ReStore Volunteers:

We are always looking for volunteers to help in our ReStores. We have two ReStore locations in Greater Victoria - Victoria and Westshore. Our ReStores are open 6 days a week with different shifts to suit your schedule. There are so many ways to volunteer at the ReStore. Volunteers help with receiving and sorting donations, assisting customers, stocking shelves, merchandising the store floor and so much more!
​
Delivery Volunteers: 

We have recently started offering a delivery option for our ReStore customers. We are looking for volunteers for our Delivery Assistant role. Get out into the community and connect with ReStore supporters in a new way! Shifts are Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Assistant to Lead Driver. Door to door only. Must be comfortable and capable of safely lifting furniture and other heavy items.

Event Volunteer Opportunity:

Gingerbread Ambassadors:

Habitat Victoria's 16th Annual Gingerbread Showcase fundraiser is fast approaching and we need YOUR help! Once again hosted at the fantastic Hotel Grand Pacific, we look forward to welcoming the many visitors that come out to view and vote for their favourite creation. This iconic Victoria holiday event features local professional and at-home bakers building imaginative gingerbread creations, all in support of Habitat Victoria. 

The show runs daily from 9am to 9pm from Friday, November 22, 2024 through Saturday, January 4th, 2025. Shifts are 3 hours long, with 2-3 ambassadors per shift. Sign up for as many as you like.  

Volunteer ambassadors help greet guests, encourage them to vote and donate for their favourite, and spread the holiday cheer.
