To all of the local individual volunteers who helped residents and their community with disaster relief and recovery efforts.
Efforts came in all shapes and sizes; from preparing and serving meals at the Salem community centre, the removal of refrigerators and freezers/ spoiled food from homes, donating monetarily and physical items, and providing health and wellness support. Your invaluable work is a source of compassion, resilience, and pride within our community. ♥
