2020 OVSA Recipients

The JCCC would like to acknowledge their 17 Ontario Volunteer Service Award Recipients for 2020.

With the pandemic, the Government of Ontario was unable to hold their traditional recognition ceremony. Instead it was celebrated with a virtual gathering last night.

Our volunteers are vital to our many programs, classes and festivals. Without them, we would not be able to achieve all that we do. So please join us in congratulating this year’s recipients and in extending a huge thank you to all of our volunteers.

Stay safe until we are able to welcome everyone back!
