Where to find us: We will be set up across from Shoppers Drug Mart. Customers drop off gifts to be wrapped for a donation. Volunteers wrap the gifts (customers choose their wrapping paper) and place them in a basket for collection.
The gift wrapping station is open during mall hours:
December 1 - 24, 2024
Saturday: 10am-9pm
Sunday: 11pm-6pm
Monday - Friday: 10pm-9pm
If you are interested in wrapping, please CLICK HERE to sign up yourself or your group for a time slot.
Volunteer Guidelines
• You MUST register the number of people volunteering for each shift. We have a maximum number of people per shift.
• Only 1 volunteer will be allowed to gift wrap out of each basket. There will be no sharing of gifts unless you are part of the same cohort. Do not jump between baskets.
• Once gifts are wrapped, they will be placed in a labelled basket. Once all the gifts are wrapped, the volunteer can hold out the basket and the customer can grab their bag of gifts, minimizing touch points.
Canceling a shift
If you are unable to cover your shift or someone in your group can’t make it, please login and remove your name(s) from the shift ASAP AND contact one of the Volunteer leads. Contact information will be shared prior to shift date.
Living with CF?
If you, or somebody you are bringing for your shift has cystic fibrosis, please contact the CFC Chapter President Jean Hodgins (204) 292 9570 to ensure there are no other people with CF wrapping with you. There are Cystic Fibrosis Canada infection control policies, and we try our best to avoid people with cystic fibrosis volunteering at the same time. Please click here to see policy.
PLEASE NOTE - you must be 16+ years old to book shifts. If you are bringing a friend (or two) with you, you must select as many shifts as the number of people in your party. If you are able to, PLEASE consider signing up for multiple shifts on the same day or do varying shifts over multiple days.
Thank you so much for your support!
