Roles Available for The Princess Margaret Ride in Hamilton

On June 13-14, 2026, join us for two remarkable days as we mark the 19th anniversary of The Princess Margaret Ride presented by Johnson & Johnson. The Ride is a transformative event dedicated to advancing life-changing cancer research at The Princess Margaret. Thousands of participants will take on the challenge of riding 200+KM from Toronto to Niagara, all with an undeniable spirit of camaraderie and community.

PMCF volunteers are passionate community driven by a shared vision: to create a world free from the fear of cancer. There are many different volunteer opportunities at the Ride including locations in Toronto, Hamilton, Niagara and along the route.

We are specifically looking for Sweep and Event Services Volunteers at our McMaster University Venue ! If you love being in the action and supporting and cheering on Riders, these would be great roles for you !
