The VBM
Team

The Volunteer Bureau of Montreal team includes both permanent staff and dedicated volunteers, all united by a passion for promoting and advancing volunteer action. Together, we work to strengthen community engagement and support nonprofit organizations in fulfilling their missions.

Driven by her courage, dynamism, and creative spirit, she engages the team, the board, and volunteers through a collaborative, results-oriented management style.

Yousra André

Volunteer Services coordinator

I grew up between France and Morocco, studying law and feminism in Lyon and Montreal. Through my intercultural background, it is human connections and collective relationships that have always fascinated me. I have had the opportunity to coordinate programs and volunteers in a variety of contexts—community, public health, and grassroots initiatives. Joining the CABM team to help promote volunteerism and thus contribute to building a more cohesive, locally organized society in Montreal gives me great pleasure.
