National Volunteer Week 2025

Celebrating the hearts and hands that make Made by Momma possible…..
Happy National Volunteer Week!

At the heart of Made by Momma are our many volunteers – this video is just a small sample of the volunteers who helped make the magic happen during National Volunteer Week 2025! While we were not able to capture everyone, this shows the incredible dedication of those who are a part of what we do every day at Made by Momma. From 6 months to 16 years of supporting our mission, and volunteering with us…. these volunteers are pretty incredible!

Each individual volunteer contribution, big or small, creates momentum and has the power to influence and inspire, joining a wave of positive change!” ~ Volunteer Canada
