Volunteer with Mosaic

Through the commitment, passion and work of our volunteers, we are able to provide a wide range of services and programs. Volunteers are critical to our work, and act as advocates for all those who use our services. We offer our volunteers various opportunities within our organization.

Due to the vulnerable nature of our participants, we require our volunteers to be 18 years of age (unless youth 12+ are accompanied by an adult), and have a recent (within 3 months) vulnerable sector check available.

If you would like to explore our volunteer opportunities (listed below), please reach out to Kenda at kriles@mcha.ns.ca

Fundraise with Mosaic

Do you, your community group, service club or business want to help raise money for Mosaic? Whatever your planned activity, event, or initiative, we want to support you in supporting us.

We benefit immensely from third-party fundraising events as they:

  • Raise awareness in our community about mental illness, and how Mosaic programs and services support those in our community living with mental illness
  • Provide financial support to Mosaic to help those in our community living with mental illness
  • Introduce new volunteers to Mosaic

You can help us in one or all these ways by hosting your own event. Our work would not be possible without our generous community of supporters. Thank you so much for considering us as the charity of choice for your fundraising event. Quite simply, we could not do what we do without people like you. Thank you!
