How It Works

  • Submit your formal resume and complete a brief questionnaire above so we can learn about your motivations and find the best fit for you.

  • Selected volunteers will undergo onboarding and orientation to familiarize themselves with SSU policies, procedures, and expectations, ensuring you have the knowledge and skills to succeed.

  • Your hours will depend on the nature and frequency of the activities you choose to support, ensuring it fits your student schedule.

 
 

SSU’s Volunteer Program was brought back to Sheridan,
courtesy of your SSU Vice Presidents!

The SSU’s Volunteer Program is designed to foster a sense of community, encourage personal growth, and provide students with opportunities to make a positive impact on campus. After speaking to students inside the classrooms, at Orientation, and events, our Exec team discovered that students are actively looking for opportunities to get involved on campus. Former Vice Presidents Amalia Powell and Grace Rebeca Verghese came together to offer a solution. Today, this program continues through our Student Executive Team.

Volunteer Appreciation Day

A special Volunteer Appreciation Day will be organized at the end of each term to celebrate the volunteers' hard work and dedication. Enjoy a day filled with Awards and Certificates, small prizes and community!
