These inspiring volunteers lead by example, inspire action and foster change. Their dedication goes beyond expectations as they generously give their time despite busy schedules to volunteer at the Society. By spotlighting their exceptional work, we aim to inspire others to join their team! Their selflessness and compassion bring hope and support to people affected by dementia. Join us by making a difference by volunteering with the Alzheimer Society of BC and Yukon. 

2023 Volunteer Appreciation Night

On November 2 the Alzheimer Society of BC and Yukon gave a heartfelt salute to the backbone of the Society — our incredible volunteers. From six months to ten-plus years of service, every volunteer received a well-deserved spotlight for their monumental impact. Among those being celebrated were three volunteers who have dedicated 16 years of their lives to helping our vision of a world where people affected by dementia are welcomed, supported and included – Ron and Deb Angell, as well as Elise Wilson.
