Volunteering at the Mississauga Ukrainian Festival
The Festival has always depended on the generous help of volunteers like you. Our wonderful volunteers have helped transform the original Toronto Ukrainian Festival from a local community event into the biggest Ukrainian Street Festival in North America. The Festival committee hopes that you can help continue that success by volunteering at the 2018 Mississauga Ukrainian Festival.
How Can I become a Volunteer for the Festival?
The best way to become a volunteer for the festival is to register through this website (see the button below) for the particular shift that you would like to have, and the Volunteer Coordinator will contact you to confirm your choice.
Sign in / Sign out
Every volunteer must register (sign in) before performing the shift. To do so, please arrive to the festival Volunteer Centre (tent) 10 minutes before the beginning of your shift. There you will meet the Volunteer Coordinator, who will assist you, so don’t hesitate to ask for help.
At the end of the shift volunteers must sign out from the shift at the same Volunteer Centre.
Attendance
If you will be late or would need to cancel or reschedule your shift, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator as soon as possible, preferably at least 24 hours before the beginning of the shift. This will allow us time to find a substitute.
Festival T-shirts
At the time of registration each volunteer will receive a special Mississauga Ukrainian Festival 2018 Volunteer T-shirt. Please wear this T-shirt while on your shift. This is for the convenience of the Festival visitors who will then be able to locate volunteers and staff without difficulty.
Also please dress comfortably during the shift, as the shift might require certain physical work. Keep in mind that if your shift is outdoors, having a hat, sunglasses and the sun block might be a sound idea. An umbrella or raincoat could come in handy as well.
No Smoking Policy
It is the policy of the Mississauga Ukrainian Festival that Volunteers engaged at the Festival should refrain from smoking while on shifts.
