What is Let's Talk Science Outreach all about?
Science is everywhere and so are our volunteers — from classroom
visits, field trips, lab tours, and science fairs to workshops at schools,
museums and community events all across Canada.
No matter how
much or how little time you have in your schedule, we make it easy for you to get involved by providing
you with numerous volunteer opportunities, and logistical support. With just a few hours of your time each year, you can make a difference!
