Empowering PEI
Connecting passionate volunteers with the organizations that need them most. Building a stronger community, one connection at a time.
Our Story
The journey began in 2010 with a simple idea: technology should make it easier for people to do good. What started as a passion for developing volunteer matching websites has grown into a mission to serve communities effectively.
Volunteer PEI is part of a larger network of volunteer sites dedicated to bridging the gap between willing hands and meaningful work. In 2025, we launched major updates to our platform, bringing a modern, user-friendly experience to the PEI community.
We believe that everyone has something to give, and by making those opportunities accessible, we can transform our city together.

Meet the Founder
"I created Volunteer PEI to address a need in PEI, and more importantly, because I am passionate about volunteering."
Hi! I'm the person working diligently in the background to help make it easier for volunteers to volunteer!
I have a background in engineering, computer science, and other sciences (biochemistry, chemistry). My family and my full-time job as an engineer keep me very busy. The time I dedicate to Volunteer PEI is usually in the wee hours of the morning.
Apart from my education and work experience, I love my family, I'm an avid cyclist, a lifelong learner, a music lover, and a big fan of anything computer-related.
