Simple. Work an hour; get over $30 (and rising) worth of free food, beer and other swag — Work for play.

We've partnered with some of Vancouver's best businesses to make sure you feel truly appreciated. Even volunteers have a bottom line. How do we know that? Because everybody's gotta eat.

Volunteering can be hard work. It's especially hard when it's poorly incentivized and goes unrecognized.

Some organizations ask you to volunteer many hours before giving you even the smallest incentives. We find that disrespectful to your time.

This is the list of currently available perks:

• Steamworks Brewery Tasting Experience — Four 5-ounce glasses of the brews you choose. — 20oz of beer. No purchase necessary.
• Free food, up to $16 value, at Dubh Linn Gate — a high quality Irish Pub in Olympic Village. No purchase necessary, but still treat yourself to a drink! You deserve it.
• Do you believe in bagels? Head over to Rosemary Rocksalt for any Montreal-style bagel and Winnipeg-style cream cheese spread your heart desires. Yes; Montreal and Winnipeg. Yes, FREE.
• Ticket to a show AT THE RIO. How much? Zero. Zilch. Zip. Nothing. Nada. That's right... you read that correctly: FUH-REE.

We're going to add more. Why? Because we value your time.
