Thank You to our Volunteers!


This week in Canada, we celebrate National Volunteer Week, recognizing the vital contribution of volunteers across the nation. CNAR's volunteers are the backbone of our organization. Our dedicated and hard-working volunteers give their valuable time, as well as their insight, expertise, and advice to help make our association better in every way. Every moment of their time makes a difference and impacts the work we do - and the work we’ll do in the future. We are truly grateful.
