The National Volunteer Week website launched today with new tools and resources to support voluntary organizations and volunteer centres in their efforts to recognize Canada’s volunteers. The website is at a new URL this year; to visit the new site, go tohttp://nationalvolunteerweek.ca/.

This year’s NVW site features new volunteer recognition tools, which will be available on an ongoing basis throughout January and February. A new instalment of the NVW video seminar series will be released on the site each week starting in late January. Click here for more information about the NVW seminar series.

Downloadable NVW campaign materials and promotional resources are now available online. Visit the Campaign Kit page to access items including posters and postcards, letterhead, website banners, and a NVW PowerPoint template.

Volunteer Canada is also asking for your input on the NVW site. Do you have an innovative idea for volunteer recognition? How do you plan on thanking your volunteers this year? Post your volunteer recognition tips and advice on the Volunteer Canada Facebook pageand we’ll feature a selection of responses on the NVW website.

New products from the NVW e-store featuring this year’s campaign creative will be available through the e-store website later this month. Stay tuned for an e-store announcement in the coming weeks via eVOLution.
