Spending the afternoon with Matthew and his family and sharing all the exciting details about their trip was an honour, and more of a pleasure than I could have imagined.  Matthew loved talking about the things he was going to see and it was just awesome to hear him shouting how excited he was.

Volunteers are vital to the Sunshine Foundation!

In chapters across Canada, approximately 500 volunteers form the very heart of our organization. They give their time and skills not for personal gain or praise, but to make a difference in the world and to bring a little sunshine into the lives of extraordinary children.

Sunshine chapters need volunteers at all levels of commitment. You can make a difference to Sunshine Kids through volunteering:

• Plan and help out with a special event (like a golf tournament or children's art auction)
• Put on the Sunshine Bear costume and become our mascot for the day
• Work with a family to present a Dream to their child
• Meet with local businesses, community groups and media to build support for Sunshine
• Help keep other volunteers informed of important developments in your community
