Mission Statement

Our vision for the Timeraiser is to make it the most memorable, engaging and impactful civic engagement program in the country. Our mission is to:

  1. Promote civic engagement amongst Canadians
    in the early stages of their careers
  2. Help volunteer agencies find the skilled people
    their organizations need
  3. Improve the experience of bringing people to causes
    and causes to people

Description

Timeraiser is a volunteer matching fair, a silent art auction, and a night out on the town. The big Timeraiser twist is rather than bid money on artwork, participants bid volunteer hours.

Throughout the evening, participants meet with various non-profit organizations in the room to find available volunteer opportunities that meet their needs. Once matches are made, the bidding can begin. Winning bidders have 12 months to complete their pledge in order to bring the artwork home as a reminder of their goodwill.
