Commonwealth War Graves Commission

Nonprofit

The CWGC is a global organization, caring for war graves at 23,000 locations in more than 150 countries and territories. We commemorate almost 1.7 million individuals, ensuring that all the Commonwealth men and women who died during both world wars are commemorated in a manner befitting their sacrifice. In Canada, we have launched a National Volunteer Program and we are currently recruiting in Newfoundland & Labrador. The program enables those with an interest in our work to act as our eyes in their local area. Volunteers will visit their local cemeteries and gather information about the condition of CWGC war graves. Training will be provided on all aspects of the work required including how to safely clean war graves. Volunteers will play a vital role in helping us to achieve our mandate to maintain CWGC war graves in perpetuity. Your help will make a real difference to our work commemorating the service men and women who died during the First and Second World Wars and are buried in Newfoundland & Labrador. With your help we hope to keep alive the stories of the men and women whom we commemorate. Please note: For this volunteer position, you will need to have a smartphone with data and access to a vehicle. Be advised that this work is outside in areas where the ground is often uneven and sometimes overgrown.

NL Audio Guide

Nonprofit

NL Audio Guide is a community-driven initiative dedicated to making Newfoundland and Labrador’s history, culture, and natural beauty more accessible and engaging for everyone. We produce high-quality, multilingual audio tours that bring local stories to life—designed for tourists, newcomers, and residents alike who want to explore the province in a deeper, more personal way. Our mission is to create an easy-to-use platform where anyone can walk through iconic places like Signal Hill, Quidi Vidi, or the streets of Bonavista and hear captivating stories told by local voices. From historical facts to folklore, from indigenous heritage to immigrant journeys, each guide is carefully researched and recorded to ensure authenticity and accessibility. We work with local researchers, translators, audio artists, and volunteers to create and distribute these guides digitally through our website and mobile app. Our project is grassroots in spirit but growing with strong potential to impact tourism, education, and community engagement across the province. By connecting people through storytelling, NL Audio Guide is not just a tourism tool—it’s a platform for cultural preservation, inclusive exploration, and community pride.

Rushoon Community Center Committee

Nonprofit

A committee elected by the residents of the community of Rushoon to operate and fundraise for the new community center within the community, The community center was previously the RC parish hall but was purchased by the community via the Town of Rushoon Council. It was initially built in the community as a high school in 1964 using some wood from the base in Argentia. The community kept the building going under the parish of Christ the King until it went up for sale to pay for the actions of the RC archdiocese. This building has been used not only as a school, but church, concert venue, wedding venue, school graduation ceremony and funerals. To this day the then "hall" now community center continues to be an inportant part of life in this small southern Newfoundland Community.

Newfoundland Pony Society

Nonprofit

The Newfoundland Pony Society (NPS) is the official organization responsible for the preservation and protection of the Newfoundland Pony. Under the Heritage Animal Act, the NPS is mandated to protect and maintain the Newfoundland Pony Registry. In the Fall of 1979, a group of concerned pony owners held a public meeting in St. John’s and the Newfoundland Pony Society was created. The NPS was incorporated in 1981 as a registered charity (#8991 23053 RR0001). The Society convinced the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador that the Newfoundland Pony was a living part of the province’s cultural history and as such, required legal protection before there were too few ponies to maintain a healthy population. This initiative resulted in the Heritage Animals Act being passed on December 19, 1996. The Newfoundland Pony and the Newfoundland Pony Society received their official designation under this Act on September 15, 1997. Once in the thousands, there are now an estimated 500-600 Newfoundland Ponies in Canada and the U.S., with the actual number of breeding ponies much lower. This hard-working animal played an important role in the survival of rural Newfoundland; they hauled wood for building and heating houses, they pulled kelp from the beach for gardens, and were a dependable means of transportation for families. NPS recently secured a 50-year agricultural lease on 25 acres of Crown land near Hopeall, Trinity Bay. We plan to restore the pasture and create a dedicated showcase area called The Newfoundland Pony Heritage Park. The park will provide free grazing pasture and breeding space for Newfoundland Pony owners in the area, in addition to a visitor centre for school groups, the public and tourists.
