This week’s Throwback Thursday post, in honour of National Volunteer Week, is a short film called “Call for Volunteers”. This short archival film from WWII depicts how the women of Winnipeg opened a volunteer bureau and enlisted 7000 womeninto the war effort. Through a variety of activities, these women extended and maintained social services during the war. Look out for a special appearance by the YMCA of Winnipeg! Check out the link below.
