Thank you for your interest in serving with Samaritan’s Purse Canada in Northern Alberta.
All registered volunteers will receive free orientation and training, and are paired with experienced leaders. Volunteers are provided with personal protective equipment (which may include masks, gloves, goggles, Tyvek suits, and face shields) and tools to assist homeowners. To learn more about how volunteers serve, please visit our Canadian Disaster Relief Volunteer page.
Volunteers must be at least 16 years or older, and youth ages 16 and 17 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Volunteers must be in good health and pass a daily Covid-19 health screening assessment. Volunteers are required to provide their own transportation and a bagged lunch. Worksites generally operate Monday through Saturday from 7:30am to 5:00pm. Volunteers must be willing to comply with physical distancing protocols and additional health and safety measures as outlined by the site leadership team.
Our focus is helping with the restoration of homes and properties at no cost to allow families to safely return home following a disaster.
Samaritan's Purse is a nondenominational evangelical Christian organization providing spiritual and physical aid to hurting people around the world. Since 1973, Samaritan's Purse Canada has helped victims of war, poverty, natural disasters, disease, and famine with the purpose of sharing God's love through His Son, Jesus Christ.
We share God's love through His Son, Jesus Christ. We ask our volunteers to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with our purpose as they serve with us. Samaritan’s Purse helps people regardless of religion, race, gender, or socio-economic standing. We partner with local churches, just as the Good Samaritan partnered with the innkeeper. For more information on the foundation of our faith, please see our Statement of Faith.
