KATIMAVIK

Have you ever wanted to travel across Canada, learn about its history and culture, and help contribute to sustainable development in Canada?  Have you ever wanted to learn Canada’s other official language?  If you are between the ages of 17 and 21, Katimavik is a great way to do that.  Katimavik is one of Canada’s leading youth volunteer programs.  

Youth from all over Canada live in different regions in Canada for either 6 or 9 months and participate in volunteer programs in each of the regions.  It is a great way to meet new people and make a difference, while gaining valuable skills. 

In addition, you can get university credits for Katimavik, depending on which program you are doing.  And you don’t have to worry about how much it costs.  It is Free!  Katimavik is paid for by the federal government.  Cool, huh?
