Start the new year with making a difference in the Hamilton community, providing much-needed support while connecting with other McMaster students and supporting each other! CVC has more than 20 weekly volunteer groups to choose from, serving recent immigrant youth, children, adults with disabilities, underserved youth, and more. Most volunteer groups are in person and a few groups are virtual.

Each group volunteers weekly and is led by a student facilitator who leads a 20-30 minute group reflection on your service experiences after each volunteer session.

To learn about volunteering, meet the group facilitators, and directly signup for a weekly volunteer group, drop-in to our Volunteer Fair.

Community Volunteer Circles (CVC) is a program of Open Circle. We are a network of volunteering groups where you volunteer weekly with other McMaster students at placements across Hamilton. Your group facilitator helps you find your way to the placement and facilitates discussion for 15 min. after each volunteer session to help you reflect on your experiences and how these relate to larger societal issues.
