At Trips for Kids Ottawa, our programs thrive thanks to the dedication of volunteers like Gunnar, Mike, and Joanne. They each bring unique talents, years of commitment, and a shared passion for making a difference in the lives of youth.
Gunnar: As both a parent and volunteer, Gunnar’s connection to Trips for Kids Ottawa runs deep. His child once experienced the joy and growth our programs offer. Today, he’s sharing his skills and enthusiasm to empower a new generation of youth to embrace challenges, build confidence, and thrive.
Mike: A true TFKO champion! Mike mentors young skaters and bikers and has also served as a former board member and Past Board President, helping guide our organization’s direction.
Joanne: A versatile leader, Joanne works with our girls-only bike program, empowering youth to build confidence. She also ensures all our volunteers are cleared to work with vulnerable youth, keeping our programs safe and accessible.
Without amazing volunteers like these, we couldn't deliver high-quality, transformative programs that help kids thrive outdoors. Inspired by their stories? Join us and help make a difference! Our team needs individuals interested in grant writing, translation, social media support, fundraising, and event planning. Your skills can help us grow and create even more opportunities for the youth we serve.
