At least 25 turtles had been struck one rainy day last June, but one Blanding's turtle, a nationally listed species at risk and one of the rarest in Canada, was particularly lucky that Jennifer McCarter, a conservation biologist and reptile specialist for the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) was the one to find and rescue her.

Having been struck, by multiple cars, on a county road in rural Ontario, McCarter pulled over to help the injured turtle.

(National Volunteer Week - April 22-26)

Volunteers across the country are being recognized this week as National Volunteer Week kicks off. From Goose Bay to North Bay, Canadians who donate their time and talents continue to be a driving force in Canada's economy.

Erica Thompson spends her days coordinating the cross-country Conservation Volunteers program for the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC). She sees the positive impact Canadians make every day on the environment.

In February 1971, 17-year-old Ruth Roberts and 14 friends staged a "starve-in" in a church basement in Calgary to draw attention to the struggle of African children suffering during a continent-wide famine. "We chose to stop eating for a day and a half so we could understand, even in a small way, what those children were experiencing," recalls Roberts.

For many it's bigger than prom - a night where kids get to take over their schools, walls come down between cliques and everyone has a giant party to celebrate the change they are making in the world. The World Vision 30 Hour Famine (famine.ca) is the largest youth fundraising event in the world to fight poverty and hunger. It's also a fun night, and a social highlight for schools and youth groups across Canada. Every group gets to plan a unique event as they go without solid food for 30 hours.

Students are savvier and more globally minded than ever -- in many households they are the ones inspiring families to get involved. It does not take much to encourage and motivate today's students to take action on things like volunteering, advocating or rallying for change. This biggest challenge is how to connect students with issues they are most passionate about. It can be a great way for them to feel good about themselves, improve a university application or resumé and to build friendships.

Ottawa (March 20, 2013) Close to 100 Ontario communities have acquired transmission towers formerly used by TVOntario. The towers can be used by the communities to re-establish free over-the-air television services that their residents would otherwise have to obtain via cable or satellite, including TVO and the CBC; as well as highspeed wireless Interenet, community TV or radio, or cell phone service.

If one good turn deserves another, then potentially 100,000 good turns deserve the same.

Scouts Canada's annual Good Turn Week will take place April 13-21, spreading goodwill to Canadians from coast to coast. The community is encouraged to participate by performing their own good deeds -- joining Scouts Canada's roughly 27,000 volunteers and 74,000 youth members.
