Volunteer opportunities at our signature events are varied and allow you to be at the heart of the action, while interacting with motivated participants and inspiring Charles-Bruneau families.
The commitment of volunteers is the pillar on which our events are built.
Your gift of time is invaluable: it allows us to reduce operating costs so that every dollar raised can be dedicated primarily to curing children with cancer.
Getting involved with us means offering your talent and energy so that research can move faster and every child can find their way back to health. Together, we form a united team driven by a single mission: a childhood without cancer.

Field volunteers
Our field volunteers are the logistical engine of our events. Through their energy and versatility, they ensure an exceptional experience for participants while optimizing our operational resources. Being a field volunteer means transforming your energy into a direct impact for research.
Business volunteers
Our business volunteers are strategic allies who help extend the reach of our events. By leveraging their expertise and network of influence, they play a key role in recruiting partners and participants. Whether they sit on our committees or act as ambassadors, their involvement maximizes the impact of our fundraising for research.

“July doesn’t just mean summer and holidays for me; July is synonymous with the Tour CIBC Charles-Bruneau. It’s the excitement of reconnecting with the other volunteers who become our family for a week, and knowing that we will share fun, good spirits, laughter and big emotions.”
“I am a home childcare educator, and in 2007 I cared for little Laurence. She was diagnosed with a Wilms tumor (kidney cancer) just before her third birthday. In 2012, I started volunteering for the Quebec City route, and Laurence’s father… rides! Being a volunteer is my way of giving back for all the excellent care Laurence received.”
