We’re looking for enthusiastic, self-motivated individuals who can work collaboratively in a team environment while representing Epilepsy South Central Ontario with professionalism and care.

Ideal volunteers are:

• Reliable and punctual

• Friendly and able to engage with the public

• Comfortable working in both slow-paced and high-pressure environments

• Willing to follow booth guidelines and take initiative when needed

• Able to attend a mandatory training session (sign up below)

Dress Code:

• Dark pants/slacks/skirt

• Light-colored top (no slogans, jeans, or t-shirts)

• Please dress as a semi-professional would

• An apron will be provided to protect your clothing during shifts

All volunteers are required to attend a mandatory in-person training session before participating in any gift-wrapping shifts.

During the training, volunteers will learn proper gift-wrapping techniques, including helpful tips for wrapping unusually shaped or delicate items. The session will also cover customer service expectations and how to engage respectfully and positively with shoppers. Volunteers will gain a deeper understanding of the mission of Epilepsy South Central Ontario and how to professionally represent the organization throughout the campaign.

Additionally, the training will provide an overview of booth setup, the required dress code, and general shift procedures. Volunteers will also have the opportunity to ask questions and practice their wrapping skills in a supportive environment.
