Volunteer With Us

Volunteer with Ignite and help local youth have a safe, fun place to be.

Volunteer

Give some time, make a difference

Our volunteers are a big part of what makes Ignite a welcoming place. Whether you can help out at a weekly youth night, lend a hand at a special event, or work a bingo shift, your time helps keep Ignite free and open for youth in Elgin County. No special skills needed, just a caring attitude and a willingness to show up.

Ways to help

  • Nightly youth programming (a once a week commitment)
  • Special events
  • Bingo shifts
  • Something else you'd like to offer

Safety comes first. To protect the youth we serve, every volunteer must provide a current Vulnerable Sector Screening (VSS) before their start date.
