Results Canada is a grassroots advocacy organization that believes in empowering everyday people to use their voices to generate the political will to end extreme poverty. We combine the voices of our volunteers with strategic areas of focus to leverage resources for programs and improved policies that give people living in poverty the health, education and opportunity they need to thrive. Whether it’s writing letters to the editor (LTEs), using social media, or engaging with parliamentarians, our passionate volunteers positively impact people living in low-and middle-income countries.If you want to become an effective advocate and are committed to take action on a monthly basis, join us! We have groups in Brampton and Mississauga looking for volunteers, but we would be equally happy to find a group leader to start a new group in Caledon (see our 'group leader' volunteering opportunity: https://volunteermbc.org/report.php?ListType=VolunteerPositionsAll&ID=2893).

• You will collaborate closely with like-minded individuals and experience what it means to be politically engaged
• We provide best-in-class advocacy support to train and coach volunteers so that they can take on the kind of work that a lobbyist or public relations pro might - but with the authenticity, passion and credibility of everyday people driven by a mission, not by a profit
• You also have the opportunity to participate in our events and conferences that connect you with experts in the International Development Sector
• Finally, the civic engagement knowledge you will acquire can be applied to other public policy issues you care about outside your Results Canada group.

FLEXIBLE: Your volunteer hours will include scheduled blocks of time (your group's monthly meeting, occasional webinars, other calls), but the majority will be on your own schedule (reading the monthly campaign, planning, researching, taking action, reporting back, etc).
