Support Opportunities

The biggest reason that people live, work and play in Canby is contributed to the quality of life that we have all come to enjoy. Everyone benefits when citizens become involved and feel empowered to make a difference in the direct community that we live in.

After assisting in a community project or working with an advisor, we consistently hear comments from participants. Most people say that it felt good to be a part of making a difference in where we live or that they met someone new. Other supporters have commented that the hesitated to become involved in community concern because they didn't know where to begin and they felt overwhelmed. Canby Livability is designed to create win/win strategies that ultimately improve the quality of life in our town.

Whether you were born and raised in Canby or your new to the neighborhood, if your committed to the livability of our community, then consider our organization as a resource.  Contact CLC

Become An Advisor: Do you have an area of concern or interest related to quality of life issues that you would like leadership support with? Canby Livability is designed to combine resources, streamline volunteer efforts, identify funding strategies, and to bring like minded people together. Bring your idea for an advisory position to a monthly meeting and the board of advisors can explore with you the current possibilities for your area of interest. The time commitment of an advisor is determined by the how much the individual wants to give to their area of interest. Most communications are done by email. Advisors submit a brief monthly summary report to document what is happening with their area of interest as well as any upcoming needs and then attend the monthly advisor meeting.

Attend a Monthly Meeting: Canby Livability meets the 2nd Thursday of every month from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM in the upstairs meeting room at Season's Grill located at 101 N Elm St, Canby, OR, 503-266-3805. Ordering dinner from the menu is optional. Most advisory meetings begin with a guest speaker or other presentation. Topics relate to new or upcoming community events, services, or introduce a like-minded local organization. Next, each advisor gives a brief overview of their area of focus. This is followed by new business, and with the meeting ending promptly 8:00 PM.

Find an Area of Interest: Not sure of what you'd like to do or maybe your new to the area? We invite you to meet with one of our advisors who will help you to navigate the different areas of livability in our community as well as the upcoming projects that might be of interest you. Our team of advisors can connect you with resources, and community programs that will help you to identify what intrigues you the most. You might be surprised at how many interesting opportunities there are in our community. Discover how much of a difference you can make with even a brief commitment of time.

Make a Donation: Our organization believes that time, money, and energy are all assets. We have a wide range of support opportunities ranging from one time volunteer projects to our vehicle donation program. Citizens with unique talents, professional skills, or hobbies find that they can also be an assets in assisting our organization. Our many projects can always use the insight of artists, craftsmen, designers, coordinators, event planners, organizers, bi-lingual services, secretarial duties, equipment operators, technology professionals, and service providers. We're always interested in diversifying our support base and all levels of participation are encouraged.
