Shinerama is a great way to give back to your local community, gain valuable skills, and meet cool, new people at your school! We rely on the generous support of our volunteers, donors, and partners, who help us move toward our vision of a world with cystic fibrosis. The money raised through Shinerama allows CF Canada to invest in world-class targeted research and advocate for high-quality CF care. For more information about Cystic Fibrosis Canada, please visit cysticfibrosis.ca

Please contact the Shinerama campaign coordinator at your school to find out what volunteer roles are available. To find the contact information for your campaign coordinator, click on "Find Your School" and then locate your school name in the drop-down list. Once you find your school name, click on it to be redirected to your school's online fundraising page. There you will find your campaign coordinator's contact information! You can also email shinerama@cysticfibrosis.ca, and we will connect you to your school's campaign coordinator.

Of course! Either you can make a general donation to Shinerama, or you can register as a virtual Shiner and fundraise online. If you are interested in starting a Shinerama campaign at your school, please contact shinerama@cysticfibrosis.ca.

We are always looking to bring Shinerama to new universities, colleges or technical schools across Canada. Contact shinerama@cysticfibrosis.ca to get started!
