Plane Pull for Sight 2024 Volunteer

24 Aero Dr. NE, FedEx Ramp. Calgary International Airport, Calgary, AB, T2E 8Z9 [map]
6-8 hours
Taking place annually in Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver, Plane Pull for Sight is Orbis Canada's national signature fundraising event. Supported by National Event Sponsor, FedEx, Plane Pull for Sight challenges teams of up to 20 people – friends, family, colleagues and coworkers – to work together to pull a 60-tonne FedEx 757 cargo plane a distance of 20 feet.

Teams are required to fundraise a minimum of $3,750 for the opportunity to take part in this awesome challenge and earn the sweet bragging rights that come with being the fastest pulling team. 

The event also features three additional team challenges to go along with pulling the plane. Teams will earn points in each challenge to ultimately determine who will be crowned Plane Pull for Sight champion! And, with a variety of other fun games and activities for participants and their families to enjoy, there's something for everyone. 

We are looking for volunteers to come out and support our fundraising efforts during Plane Pull for Sight. With a variety of roles, including check-in and registration, Kids' Activity Zone, Games' Zone, Pull Zone and so much more, there's something for everyone!
Why should you volunteer for this opportunity?
Lunch and an Orbis t-shirt will be provided. You'll also get the chance to test your strength and pull the plane at the end of the day! Volunteer hours can be provided to high school students. Great opportunity to meet new people, experience a new event, and support an essential and great cause.
