Our Much Appreciated Volunteers
John Carver – Volunteer
John has donated his time to the centre for over 10 years. He handles the front desk every Thursday. John came to the centre first as a client, and later began volunteering. He also is quite involved in co-housing where he lives, “it allows you to get to know the other residents more than you would in apartment style living.”
Russ has been providing his time to the centre for over 10 years. He runs the front desk every Wednesday afternoon. Russ was a client of the centre and then a volunteer. When he’s not working at his other job, he’ll be working the garden in his yard.
Lori Willcox – Clothing Consultant
Lori is from Victoria and has seen the struggle of men and divorce and the impact it has on the lives of men and their families and wanted to help. Lori volunteers in the “Boots to Suits” Program in the clothing area. Lori serves people from all walks of life which she has a great heart for.
