Volunteers are the heartbeat of thousands of charities across Canada. On this episode we chat about National Volunteer Week April 24 to April 30th, 2022, and we talk with Santas Anonymous volunteer and Board Member Louise Hartland.  Louise shares her passion for volunteering and how it helped her family through a difficult time. 

Louise is a Communications Professional currently working in Diversity and Inclusion with the Province of British Columbia. She also is a former journalist and news anchor with CTV Vancouver Island which many of our listeners may fondly remember.
