Local artist donates time, talent, and passion to Red Deer Hospice Expansion


As soon as she walked into Red Deer Hospice that first time, Joyce Stewart knew she’d found a place to devote some of her volunteer efforts. The long chats, the friendly hugs, and the loving compassion.. they’re all part of the compelling work that happens at Hospice. Joyce, being an excellent baker was happy to lend some support in the kitchen. But once the expansion began a few months back, it was clear they were going to have a few empty walls and that just didn’t feel right. That’s when Stewart volunteered not just her time, but her passion for painting.

Red Deer Mayor Shares Message on Mentoring


In an effort to help Youth HQ and Big Brothers Big Sisters recruit more mentors for the kids on their waitlist, Red Deer Mayor Ken Johnston took a moment to record a video and speak on the matter:
There are currently over 70 kids in Red Deer on a waiting list, hoping for a mentor.
Anyone looking to become a mentor can visit the Youth HQ website, or reach out directly to Volunteer Resources Coordinator, Janessa McCormack via email at [email protected]
Big Brothers Big Sisters has been active for over 100 years. The organization came to the Red Deer & District region in 1976 and has been at work in this community ever since. Several programs and services are available to young persons and their families, including in-school mentoring.
