Celebrating our Volunteers in 2019

Across the country, passionate people are banding together to create a healthier world. They are conserving Canada’s wetlands to protect our water, our wildlife and our future. These people are DUC volunteers…and they’re a force for conservation in your community.

Ducks Unlimited Canada is supported by more than 5,600 volunteers who help deliver important wetland conservation. They run hundreds of fundraising events, pitch in at local conservation project sites, help with educational programs and even volunteer at our offices. Volunteers are the heart and hands that make DUC’s work possible. Their gifts are invaluable.
