This annual event, hosted by the UPEI Department of Student Services, provides UPEI students with the opportunity to become better acquainted with the various organizations in their community, and to encourage volunteerism.

In addition to UPEI students learning more about the various programs and services available, there is an opportunity for you to learn more about becoming a volunteer with various organizations. Often students would like to volunteer but are unsure about how to proceed. At the same time, community organizations would like an opportunity to actively recruit volunteers for various activities but may not have the resources to do so. The Community Connector Fair helps to bridge that gap.

Groups seeking volunteers at this year's fair include:
- AIDS PEI
- Alzheimer Society of Prince Edward Island
- Big Brothers Big Sisters PEI
- Canadian National Institute for the Blind
- Canadian Parents for French
- Cat Action Team
- Child Find PEI
- CHANCES Family Resource Centre
- Girl Guides of Canada
- John Howard Society WrapAround Process
- Latin American Mission Program
- PEI Association for Newcomers to Canada
- PEI Family Violence Prevention Services Inc.
- Stars for Life Foundation for Autism
- United Way of PEI
