Donald Neville has more than 25 years of experience volunteering within our communities. He became a volunteer for the National Defense Workplace Charitable Campaign (NDWCC) in 2000, where he wore many hats. From canvasser to team captain, Don has dipped his toes in all aspects of the campaign. Since 2010, he has been a team leader for one of the biggest groups in the Department of National Defense, but the NDWCC team still considers him a part of their team. The NDWCC continues to be one of the largest and most successful campaigns within the broader Government of Canada Workplace Charitable Campaign (GCWCC), which benefits United Way and Health Partners.
During Don’s many volunteering experiences, he developed and delivered a modified version of the Health and Safety Awareness training program for youth with developmental challenges. He then went on to work with other social support organizations and adapted his presentation to serve youth experiencing homelessness and social injustices, as well as newcomers looking for employment.
