It is also the national resource library for the Canadian Centre for Philanthropy . In Calgary , the Volunteer Centre offers similar programs to encourage professional fundraising at all levels in nonprofits. Executive Director Martha Parker and her staff are working to form an association of fundraising executives in Alberta. And in St. John's , Supervisor Sandra Murphy points out that the centre's work with the corporate sector has made the centre an in-kind clearinghouse. Last year, 1.1 million hours of volunteer time and talent were pledged to agencies during the television special.
Centres are eager to help charities improve their level of volunteer involvement.
