“There aren’t many research institutes that focus on kids with disabilities the way that Holland Bloorview does, so it’s such a blessing to be part of this community to give back and support these children anyway I can. We’re working towards a more inclusive and equitable world. It’s exciting to see and I’m very honoured to be a part of it.” – Elshaimaa (Sheema), volunteer since 2020 including Bloorview Research Institute’s SPARK Lab Learn about how volunteers have been supported clients and families for the past 125 years. Thank you to all past and current volunteers for all of your efforts to create the most meaningful and healthy futures for all children, youth and families. Happy #IVD2024!
