Community Volunteer Connections

Community Volunteer Connections (CVC) began as the Greater Coquitlam Volunteer Bureau in 1976. We support volunteers and non-profit organizations in the Tri-Cities and bordering regions. CVC brings people together by advancing meaningful volunteer engagement to enhance the quality of life for people and support the cultivation of resilient communities.

Community Volunteer Connections works with local and regional organizations in the voluntary sector, referring volunteers to organizations that reduce poverty; increase housing affordability; provide for the inclusion of seniors in community life; enhance the development and wellbeing of our vulnerable citizens; support the welfare of animals; care for the environment; fight debilitating illnesses; and, facilitate arts and multi-cultural programming.

We believe it's important for community members to be engaged in volunteerism. We believe in listening to understand and accepting each individual's uniqueness. We support the contribution of citizens through team effort, organization support and community. We strive to continually provide useful and significant resources, exceeding expectations and striving for continuous improvement.
