At the core of the club are our trips to the mountains, and trip coordinators are the invaluable volunteers who make them happen. Organizing fellow club members is a rewarding experience, and we are focused on supporting our members with opportunities to lead within their comfort level.

Volunteer Subsidies
We love our volunteers! The hard work and dedication of the our volunteers contributes to the vibrancy of our section. We recognize that trip coordinators, and the ACC Edmonton Section community, benefit from skill development and growth, which provides everyone with enhanced trip experiences. That’s why the section offers subsidies to trip coordinators and volunteers through our Volunteer Subsidy Program.
First, read through the new guide to learn all about the volunteer subsidy program. When you’re ready to apply for the subsidy fill out the Online Application Form. If you prefer to submit a PDF version of the application, fill out the Paper Application Form and send it to volunteering@accedmonton.ca.
To improve the accessibility of the program, the application window has been extended to two years, from Oct. 1, 2024 to Sept. 30, 2026. Applications are accepted anytime within the two year window with subsidies being paid in October of each year. One application per volunteer will be accepted within the two year window.
With this program, volunteers can apply to either earn subsidies toward courses for their own development or a gift card for use toward the gear they need to lead trips. If you are applying for a course subsidy, make sure you have your course receipt and some form of course completion confirmation (certificate, email from instructor, etc.) ready before you apply.
If you are an ACC Edmonton Section volunteer, check out the program, earn points by volunteering and apply. We thank you for your volunteer contributions. Please send volunteer subsidy program inquiries to volunteering@accedmonton.ca.
