A network of weekly volunteering groups for students:
- Serve with other McMaster students at placements across Hamilton
- Learn about and help address inner-city issues
- Discuss your volunteer experiences
- Make a significant difference where it is needed
- Gain valuable experience
Each week your group facilitator helps you find your way to the placement and also facilitates discussion of your volunteer experiences for 20-30 min. at the end of your service experience.

How Do I Get Involved?
- See the list of Current Volunteer Openings and contact the facilitators of the Volunteer Circle you're interested in directly.
- The facilitators will send you some additional forms to complete and answer any questions you have, including when and where to meet the group and travel to the placement.
- Let your friends know – Volunteer Circles start this coming week, and we still need more volunteers!
For general questions or for more information, contact VolunteerCircles@mcmaster.ca.
