Lethbridge Mayor Chris Spearman is bringing attention to what he calls an important silver lining in the COVID-19 pandemic. “Volunteerism: our community’s can-do attitude and ability to pitch in and help others is something to take pride in.” He said Wednesday it’s great to see several volunteers stepping up to the plate, however, with more COVID-19 funding being announced, the need for volunteers is also growing.
Volunteer Lethbridge is using its website to connect residents with non-profit organizations in need of some additional help. “Food banks are still doing their food hampers with MyCityCare helping seniors, you can do that from home, you can write them some uplifting messages,” said Chelsea Eastman, event and resources development
