We are thrilled to announce a new initiative that rewards our dedicated volunteers! Currently for every hour you volunteer at the WFG, you earn $15.50 in credit. NEW! These credits can be used towards enrolling in our diverse range of workshops, as well as renting film gear and studio space.
This initiative is our way of expressing gratitude for the invaluable time and effort our volunteers contribute. Whether you’re interested in honing your filmmaking skills, learning new techniques, or accessing top-notch equipment and facilities, your volunteer hours can now directly support your creative journey.
Please note that some restrictions apply*. This initiative aims to make our resources more accessible while continuing to foster a supportive and collaborative community.
We look forward to seeing our volunteers take advantage of this fantastic opportunity to learn, create, and grow within the WFG family. Thank you for your continued support and dedication!
We are always looking for volunteers to help us with various tasks within the film group, and we are always happy to share any opportunities we come across with our list of volunteers as well.
When volunteering within the Winnipeg Film Group, volunteers are eligible to earn production credits the equivalent of $15.50 per hour worked when approved by production center staff. These credits can be applied towards equipment and facility rentals as long as you have a valid membership with a Production Add-On.
Earned production volunteer credits can be used by the member who has earned the credits or be transferred to another current production center member (with a current Production Add-On). Accrued volunteer credits expire automatically after one year, or on expiry of membership; in the event a member lets their membership lapse for more than one month, any accumulated credits automatically expire.

Caveats:
- For workshops, the WFG will need the minimum number of paid participants to ensure the workshops run, which includes paying our instructors fairly and covering material costs. Material costs such as film stock won’t be covered by volunteer credits.
- Volunteer credits can be applied towards equipment and facility rentals as long as you have a valid membership with a Production Add-On.
