Volunteer Opportunities

Pregnancy and infant loss is a deeply painful experience that not everyone understands. Those who have faced this type of loss need the opportunity to connect with others who can genuinely relate to help navigate their grief.  As a volunteer, you have the chance to have a profound impact on someone’s journey through loss.

Without support, many feel isolated and unable to openly express their grief—often hearing hurtful remarks like, “It wasn’t meant to be”.  PAIL Network believes that everyone should have a brave space to grieve and have people to talk with who will listen with an open heart.

Together, we can make a difference.

PAIL Network has meaningful volunteer opportunities available for people all across Ontario. With the support of volunteers, we can ensure that no one has to grieve alone.

Community volunteer opportunities

PAIL Network is grateful for the overwhelming kindness of community members across the province.  At this time we are not able to accept community volunteer applications from people who have not had a personal experience with a loss.  Thank you for your interest in volunteering with PAIL Network.

We are continually hearing from people who have not had their own personal lived experience of loss but who want to support PAIL Network and volunteer in other ways. Learn more.
