Feature #17 - Victoria Disability Resource Centre

Emma is a valued volunteer at the Victoria Disability Resource Centre, where she supports our busy parking program. Since joining the team in February of 2025, Emma has taken on a range of responsibilities, including assisting clients with parking permit applications, updating client information, and providing support in person, over the phone, and by mail. Her attention to detail and friendly approach help ensure people receive the services they need with ease and respect.

Emma shares that what she appreciates most about volunteering at VDRC is the strong sense of acceptance and positivity. She values being part of a team where colleagues support one another, offer constructive feedback, and create a welcoming environment. That sense of connection is something she encourages others to look for when considering volunteering.

At VDRC, volunteers like Emma are at the heart of what we do. Their time, care, and commitment make it possible for us to provide meaningful services to the community. We are deeply grateful for Emma and for all of our volunteers, whose contributions strengthen our work every day. More broadly, we recognize and appreciate the many individuals across our community who give their time and energy to support others. Volunteer efforts help build stronger, more connected communities, and their impact cannot be overstated.
