2020 Annapolis County Volunteer Week!

Volunteers are truly the heart of our towns, villages and communities across Annapolis County. These volunteers are people of all ages who have the common goal to make a difference in their communities and enrich their own life by giving up their own time and skill. Together they help to make our communities stronger, healthier and more vibrant. Volunteer efforts can be seen on a daily basis around Annapolis County, in our community halls, churches, hospital/health centre, schools, volunteer organizations, boards, sport and recreation groups and facilities.
