Be a Volunteer or Coach

Special Olympic volunteers work at every level of the organization, from coaching and helping out in certain programs, to making important decisions as a member of the local committee. They are the heart and soul of British Columbia Special Olympics: they organize, train, fundraise, supervise and make all the decisions that keep Special Olympics growing. Volunteer positions may be tailored to fit individual talents, areas of interest and availability.
