National Volunteer Week 2021 April 18-24, 2021 Th National Volunteer Week 2021 April 18-24, 2021 The National Volunteer Week theme for 2021, The Value of One, The Power of Many, reflects on the awe-inspiring acts of kindness by millions of individuals AND the magic that happens when we work together towards a common purpose. This past year, we have seen people supporting family, friends, neighbours, and strangers, people standing up to systemic racism, and people sharing insights on how to create a more just and equitable society. We recognize the value of the caring and compassion that each one has shown another, and we recognize the power of people, organizations, and sectors working together. Don't forget to celebrate your Volunteers this year. If you need some inspiration, check out the link to National Volunteer Week in our bio. #VolunteersBringChange #NVW2021
