Our volunteers are passionate people who are dedicated to engaging visitors in amazing educational and interpretive experiences. In 2011 1,000 volunteers contributed more than 103,000 hours of their time to effecting the conservation of aquatic life. Their efforts were recognized a few years ago when they won Volunteer Vancouver's Volunteer Recognition Award for Community Service (Group), sponsored by VanCity.
Our volunteer program includes opportunities for adults of all ages and youth to get involved and give back to their community. The volunteer experience provides endless opportunities that will challenge your curiosity and encourage you to grow, learn and meet new people.
We adhere to the values, principles and organizational standards of the Canadian Code for Volunteer Involvement and were awarded the Volunteer Manager of the Year Award by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums.
