“PACE was such a friendly and inviting environment to volunteer in!”

PACE was such a friendly and inviting environment to volunteer in! It was such an amazing experience to be involved in such a functional and innovative space that provides support for many individuals in the area and eye-opening for what I would like my future career to look like.

“The work being conducted by McMaster’s Physical Activity Centre of Excellence is truly nothing short of excellent.”

The work being conducted by McMaster’s Physical Activity Centre of Excellence is truly nothing short of excellent. It’s always so inspiring to see clients first arrive, often feeling a little low or defeated by their bodies and leaving feeling like they have so much they can accomplish. Working as a volunteer in PACE for the past two years has undoubtedly been one of my favourite aspects of my undergraduate degree because not only does it make you feel like you’re making a difference, but it’s amazing to be surrounded by individuals working so hard to improve their health. Time and time again, I’ve had clients gush about how much this place means to them, and how much stronger they feel because of PACE, both physically and mentally. I’ve never heard of a program quite like PACE, and it’s clear that it’s not only touched me, but so many others in our community.
