I had the most amazing conversation with George Colussi who had opened a lot of doors for me and I am very exited to give back and help where I can !

Full marks to Emily for such a helpful approach to assist me in helping to give back to others. She is so professional and approachable. Thanks.

I was unfortunately unable to connect. I am hoping that we may be able to talk on the phone instead. It was my understanding that I simply had to click the link, sadly not so.

Amazing call with an exciting and passionate group

Thanks. Quick and helpful

Great conversation with Emily about what would be a good fit!

Really nice and helpful! Thank you 😊

I had a great conversation and was provided support and guidance as to possible volunteer options. What a great gathering point for people wanting to give back to their community. The "one stop" for seeing what's out there is so helpful!! Thanks Volunteer Victoria!

I spoke with Debbie Fink about volunteer opportunities for me. She was very courteous and professional AND very helpful. She gave me good information that will allow me to move forward in my search for a good volunteer match for me.

I had a great chat but never received an email with volunteer info as specified. Thanks :)

Great, informative conversation. Efficient way to figure out where to apply for volunteer opportunities.

Emily was VERY well versed and knowledgeable on the dif. programs and our needs as well. very WELL DONE :-)

Emily, was very well versed on the opportunities and our wishes as well. Very WELL DONE :-)

Thank you to Emily for allowing me to reschedule multiple times before actually meeting. The meeting itself was professional and efficient, and Emily is extremely kind. Well done!

Thanks for the introduction - very helpful!

Emily was extremely helpful and I look forward to volunteering with you all at Volunteer Victoria!

Thank you to both Lisa and Lilaine. Despite my poor internet connection, I found our training and interview sessions helpful and easy to follow and had a nice injection of humour.

Really good people doing great service

Great help around my police check. Everyone was pleasant and very helpful. Waiting for confirmation so I can start volunteering

Well, everything went okay until my CRC. Apparently they need a finger print but due to COVID-19 they aren’t doing them right now.

Thank you for the initiative and compassion shown during this time. My only feedback is the training session could have been a bit quicker, focused, and to the point. 30 minutes instead of an hour. That's it!

Great experience so far' clear comunication and punctuality

Very well done interview Precise and courteous

It was helpful and efficient.

My interview today was with Lilaine Galway. She was pleasant, thorough and answered all my questions. Lilaine confirmed how I may share my Criminal Record Check ~ she will be sending a document for me to sign. Also provided some pointers that will be helpful when using Zoom for my volunteer training with Lisa It was a pleasure to "meet" Lilaine.

The Zoom introduction to the program was excellent! Thank you!

I didn't receive a call. The appointment didn't take place. I was told perhaps the interviewer had the wrong phone number and i would be contacted again. I phoned the number given, left a message with my phone number. I have not herd anything so far.

Great interview that told me all I needed to know.

Thanks Emily for an efficient and professional meeting. Thank you for your excellent work!

Great job! Friendly and clear.

Very pleasant staff person. Surprised by how little personal info was required.

Friendly welcoming discussion. I am looking forward to volunteering when needed.

All went smoothly.

Well it was sensational to chat about the program and services. unfortunately there is not the need for volunteers right now. but i'm here should anyone need me.

Maryann was a wonderful interviewer. It was a joy to talk with her.

Thanks Mary Ann and Lisa. Very effective delivery of information . Lisa is quite funny.

Great onboarding with compassionate people.

Chantelle was warm and welcoming. A beautiful 15-minutes of shared humanity

Chantelle interviewed me on FaceTime. She is professional, kind and empathetic. I look forward to being a virtual visitor 😍

Was great to connect with someone instead of having some frustration trying to communicate through email. My contact was super helpful. Many thanks!

Good chat with Chantelle, looking forward to volunteering. Organization has taken many steps to prepare everyone and to inform all of how to stay safe, along with keeping everyone else safe too.

Interviewer was great - prompt, knowledgeable, answered all my questions.

Pooja was quick to respond to my queries by email. She was prompt with the Zoom call, which was to the point and clear.

Lilaine Galway with Volunteer Victoria interviewed me today in regards to becoming a United Way volunteer here in the Comox Valley. She was very professional and friendly and informative.

Informative. Would like it to have been one hour as scheduled -- ran on a little too long and I had other plans.

Had a FaceTime chat with Emily Donald. Emily was reassuring, answered my questions and informed me of the next process in the BC 211 volunteer process. Thanks Emily👍🏻

It all went very well, using the link provided by George. I’m now looking forward to completing the initial registration process, and am confident that it will go as smoothly as the initial interview of today. Thanks for asking!

Chantelle Laplante my interviewer was jolly,helpful and she put me at ease. She is very informed about BC211. I had a good experience.

Exceptional presentation. A science based review of the facts and requirements of volunteering in the Covid world, with warmth, humour and kindness shown for both the volunteers and the clients.

Done professionally and with kindness

Lilaine was very welcoming and provided me with the information I need at this time.

Lilaine was very pleasant, personable, and efficient. She conducted our interview within 15 minutes. I believe I was well informed. Sue

I booked an appointment for May 2 at 3:30 with Emily via Facebook. It was confirmed. But she did not contact me. I sent an email and tried calling but to no avail. I will try calling Monday.

It was great meeting Emily for our short intro meeting. Looking forward to the next training session.

The interviewer was very friendly, but not ell informed. She did not have access to my photo-id uploaded to BC211 and could not give me a status of the police records check. Better integration of the systems is needed. Contact took 32 days. This is discouraging.

Lisa was an wonderfully warm and charming presenter - great job!! The presentation was thorough and well laid out - good mix of practical and policy info. I am looking forward to my assignment. Thanks for all that your team is doing for our communities!!

Very professional and accommodating. Quick to respond to questions. Overall good experience

Booked a Seniors Care hour long session for May 1st @ 10:00 as a prelude to volunteering, downloaded Zoom, opened meeting with ID & password but message remained-waiting for host to start this meeting-from 10:00 hrs to 11:00. Tried on desktop plus iPad...same message & no access to meeting. If it actually happened? Lisa Mort-Putland was the contact host... Jane Barry
