We used Volunteer Waterloo Region’s ‘Caring Kits’ program as an opportunity for our company, UTCcomp, Inc, to give back to the community. At every stage Volunteer WR was a pleasure to deal with, and they tailored this event to our company to make it a perfect fit. They brought in representatives from the organization we supported to help educate our team and provide a deeper level of meaning to the work we were doing. It was great not only to help in a small physical way but to increase our awareness of a critical issue affecting many in our area. We wholeheartedly recommend Volunteer Waterloo Region’s ‘Caring Kit’ program.

CSL has had the privilege of partnering with Volunteer Waterloo Region multiple times to support local community organizations. Their team made the entire process seamless—from organizing the event to connecting us with recipient organizations—allowing us to focus on assembling cold weather kits, welcome home kits, and self-care kits. Knowing that these essential supplies would provide warmth, hygiene, and a fresh start for individuals in need made the experience incredibly rewarding. We highly recommend Volunteer Waterloo Region to any organization looking for meaningful and impactful ways to give back to the community.

We had a very positive experience working with Volunteer Waterloo Region. We were able to connect with the team a day or two after initial engagement and found a project that fit our event size and expectations, and the team at Volunteer Waterloo Region accommodated our budget and timeline without hesitation. The event was so well organized and executed and we had everything we needed to build the kits. Our main contact who helped facilitate this event was kind enough to bring in some representations from the organizations we pledged to support - this definitely helped with creating a deeper connection and driving a sense of purpose for our volunteer event. We would without a doubt recommend working with Volunteer Waterloo Region
