Volunteer

The generous contributions of volunteers like you help us advance our mission to protect nature’s diversity and the wellbeing of all life, now and for the future.

Thank you for your interest in volunteering!

By bringing your skills, knowledge and passion to the David Suzuki Foundation, you help us achieve outcomes that would otherwise be unattainable, see things from a fresh perspective and further our work finding solutions to create a sustainable Canada.

To address the interrelated climate and biodiversity crises with social justice and equity, the David Suzuki Foundation is committed to promoting equity, diversity and inclusion. We are on a transformative journey to embed these values, decolonize our practices and become an anti-racist organization. Our current volunteer opportunities are displayed below. We thank all applicants and encourage you to apply for positions that best suit your interests and experience. Your application will be kept on file and considered for future positions as they arise.

We especially encourage applications from equity-deserving groups, specifically Indigenous and racialized people, members of the LGBTQIA2S+, trans and gender-diverse communities, women and people with disability, chronic illness and/or neurodiversity.

Join us in creating a socially and environmentally just world, where diverse identities, lived experiences and world views are valued as essential to our collective future.

Volunteers are the heart and soul of our Foundation. Their spirit, enthusiasm and pride suffuse the Foundation. To me, this passion is the glue that binds people together and makes tangible our shared values and hopes.
