With Us
Without our volunteers, there is no Victoria Lifeline. They are at the very heart of our organization.

Our amazing team volunteers almost 5,000 hours a year
Our medical alarm systems are installed by a dedicated group of Home Service Volunteers in Manitoba who are committed to the clients we serve. Trained and supported by a full-time Volunteer Coordinator, the Home Service Representative is an integral part
of this organization. It's a great volunteering opportunity in Winnipeg.

What does a typical Victoria Lifeline volunteer look like?
Well, a lot like you - a retired RCMP officer, a nurse or a student looking to fill their volunteering hours or gain experience for their resume. Our volunteers come to us from different backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common - the desire
to make a difference in the life of someone else.
Whether they’re helping a patient finally return home from the hospital or giving a young client with MS the confidence to live on their own, our volunteers give back to the Winnipeg
community in so many ways.

Doing for others, lending a helping hand - no matter how you describe it. Volunteering's greatest reward is in the service to others.
Some of our volunteers have been with Victoria Lifeline for over ten years and we think that kind of commitment speaks for itself. So what keeps them coming back?
Victoria Lifeline provides a very unique volunteer opportunity in Winnipeg and some other areas in Manitoba. It keeps you
physically active, mentally stimulated and connected to both the community and your fellow volunteers. Our volunteers are part of a team with a very special purpose of helping people live with confidence and dignity.
