Volunteer Campbell River is launching the Good Deeds project, with support from the Campbell River Mirror, the City of Campbell River and Investors Group.

A volunteer will be highlighted in the Mirror monthly Good Deeds feature spotlight. This will include a picture, the organization that submitted the nomination, and the sharing of their good deed.  The selected volunteer will receive a gift certificate to their favorite local restaurant as a token of appreciation for the work they do to better our community. The organization that nominated the selected volunteer will receive a $200 advertising gift certificate from the Mirror for a publicity campaign.

A short nomination process consisting of three questions is all it takes to nominate a volunteer.  Runners-up will also be highlighted during the National Volunteer Week campaign (deadline of 9 a.m. Monday, March 17) and in future promotions as space permits.

For more information or a nomination form, go to  www.volunteercr.ca, call Volunteer Campbell River at 250-287-8111, email: mail@volunteercr.ca or go to the Volunteer Centre at 301 St. Ann’s Road between 9 a.m. – 2 p.m., Monday – Thursday.

The Good Deeds Project will launch during National Volunteer Week, April 6-12, 2014 and continue until March 2015.
