The committee suggested that volunteerism must be appropriately recognized as funding for many programs and services are minimal. Committee members added that more training programs must be initiated, supported and made available to volunteers. This will allow volunteers to bring needed skills and experience back to their communities.

Committee members stated that if funding for training is not available for volunteers, then many programs, services and facilities are wasted. The committee emphasized that "volunteerism is more than sports and recreation, it is an area that unites communities."
