The snow angel volunteers shovel snow during the winter for people who can’t do it themselves. There isn’t much information about who or when the program started. Since the program is so simple it makes it hard to write about it. What I do know is that they aren’t just in Canada. They are in America as well. This is a good volunteer opportunity for people who want to help while being active. Shoveling snow is a pretty good exercise after all. I wouldn’t say I’m passionate about this, but I do like going out in the snow and shoveling snow is kind of fun. Especially if you do it with friends. 

 

Employment opportunity:

This was posted by the owner of the Royal city cheer and tumbling band (band is kind of like a zoom mixed with twitter). I am VERY passionate about parkour and freerunning so this was a great opportunity to turn a hobby into a part-time job. The qualifications and steps needed to qualify for the position are already in the screenshot and I met all of them. I have been an intern there for around 2 months and I’ve been helping every Monday and Wednesday from 4:30pm to 8:30pm.
