Volunteering is a great opportunity to make the community a better place to live, make new friends, be more active, and have fun.
There are many ways you can get involved in the community through volunteering, from annual events such as WEP or Bike Week, getting involved with social responsibility activities with our neighboring towns of Thuwal and Qadimah, or offering your time and talents with a Community Club.

Welcome Buddies
Pair up with the new families arriving into our community to ensure they settle in quickly and start to build their network of contacts and new friends.
TNR Program
The Trap, Neuter, Release (TNR) group works to manage our community cat population. In collaboration with Pest Control, the group traps the cats, takes them to the vet to be neutered/spayed, microchipped and vaccinated and then replaces them back into the community where they can live a much healthier, happier and longer life.
Dog Park
We have been allocated a piece of land in the Island residential area that we can develop into a permanent dog park. We are looking for community members to get involved to help us to develop this park.
Community Library
Join our action group to plan and implement improvements to our Library facilities and programming to ensure it continues to meet the needs of our community and is a central part of our community.
