Vancouver Region Educational Services

At VRES, we run a volunteer success program in collaboration with York Region Educational Services (YRES) where we recruit and mentor Canadian youth during their volunteer journeys. Our volunteer success program empowers youth to develop practical communication, teamwork, and leadership skills while providing free and accessible educational services to their community.

Vancouver Region Educational Services (VRES) is a non-profit organization committed to delivering affordable educational resources to the Vancouver Region community and beyond. Help us empower communities with affordable, accessible learning. Together, let's shape a brighter future through education! VRES delivers community-driven educational support that responds to real needs in real time. Our programs are crafted by seasoned educators who understand the unique rhythms of Vancouver’s classrooms from multilingual learning environments to eco-conscious schools, from urban centres to growing neighbourhoods. We collaborate closely with educators, families, and local voices to build programs that celebrate culture, champion sustainability, and spark innovation. Our work goes beyond textbooks, we aim to cultivate lifelong curiosity, connection, and confidence in every learner. At VRES, we believe learning should be bold, inclusive, and built for the future. Whether you're beginning your educational journey or supporting someone else’s journey, we seek to provide learning that reflects the dynamic communities that call Vancouver home.
