Muscular Dystrophy Canada has a diverse family of volunteers, from clients to family members, community supporters to like-minded organizations, and healthcare professionals to Fire Fighters and beyond. All of these volunteers are key partners in the delivery of MDC’s support programs, client services, fundraising efforts and governance. They play important roles in the Walk for Muscular Dystrophy, Chapters, Networks, special events, advocacy and on a variety of committees. We strive to provide each of our volunteers with an opportunity to succeed, contribute, and be recognized using best practices outlined by Imagine Canada. “Magic happens when we work together towards a common purpose. The power of working together can bring about monumental changes and amplify our impact; it beautifully reflects the individual and collective efforts our volunteers have demonstrated during the pandemic,” said Stacey Lintern, CEO, Muscular Dystrophy Canada.
