JUNE 2025
THRIFT VOLUNTEER NEWSLETTER
Keeping our valued volunteers informed
GM’s Corner As I drive around Leamington and see all the trees budding, I’m refreshed with the spring rains and hopeful for the warmth of the coming summer season. The smell of renewal is in the air. May was a busy month! Linda Ruby, Low German Liaison for MCCO visited, LiTunjia did a volunteer recruitment event at Nature Fresh Farms Rec Centre, and we received all kinds of help from North Leamington United Mennonite Church Youth Groups and UMEI’s In Service Day.
counts are up 222 over last year and we are steadily increasing in sales revenue. A very happy Father’s day to all you men who pour your wisdom and love into the next generation. There is nothing like a Father’s love! Volunteers, your continuous service here is such a blessing to the poor and needy that it is with heartfelt gratitude we say THANK YOU. We truly cannot do this work without you!
I am happy to report that our customer
