Volunteer

Volunteering is a great way to get involved at RASE and support creative activities in Regina! Did you know we receive no funding support for our operations? This means that volunteers are required to make our supplies available at the lowest price possible and to help keep our shop open. We are always looking for volunteers! If you'd like to discuss options before filling in the below form you can Contact Us.

Volunteer Benefits

A complete list of volunteers options are below. However, every Shop Role Volunteer can take items worth $5 or less home for free at the end of their shift. Event Volunteers receive free entry into events for which they are volunteering. Board Members cannot receive any remuneration for their services as per our incorporation documents. Please note: benefits are subject to change based on decisions of the board and stock available on shelves.

How to Apply
