What we do & why it matters
Captain Scott Legacy Society is Vancouver’s official volunteer centre. Partnering with local organizations across Metro Vancouver, we host impactful single-day volunteer events, from forest cleanups to food bank shifts and community meals.
Through our flagship program, Volunteer Wave, people can easily find a volunteer opportunity that fits their schedule with no long term commitment required. We believe volunteering should be accessible, social, and easy to try. Sometimes all it takes is one shift to feel connected to your community again.

About Captain Scott Legacy Society
We’re a Vancouver-based registered charity helping people feel more connected through supporting local nonprofits and community organizations.
Captain Scott Legacy Society began with two seniors, Scott and Greg, who became best friends through volunteering. When the pandemic put volunteering on pause, they saw how easy it was for people to become isolated and disconnected from one another. They wanted to leave behind a legacy that would keep kindness, connection, and friendship alive, while inspiring others to create their own positive impact.
Today, we continue that mission in Greg’s honour by making volunteering more accessible, welcoming, and social for everyone.
