Happy Friday! Today we wanted to honour Lauren Jamieson, who was recently recognized at a Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition event, where "Courage" was the theme of the evening.

Now a Senior Food Cupboard Assistant at the Grange Hill East Food Cupboard, Lauren began her journey with us 9 years ago. Her somewhat casual role changed rapidly after COVID lockdowns. Our food program entered a period of rapid growth, expanding from serving 35 to nearly 200 families monthly. Through this transition, we counted on Lauren for her thoughtfulness and advice.

Lauren offers compassionate, judgment-free support, builds trusted relationships with patrons and creates a welcoming space for volunteers. Her calm presence and kindness are a cornerstone for our Food Cupboard’s reputation for warmth and respect.

It’s not easy balancing volunteer work with a career and family commitments. Lauren consistently shows us how to do this with grace. Her actions reveal that courage lies in commitment, adaptability, and lifting others up.

Thank you Lauren, for all you do!
