Letter from the Editor A few months ago, I wrote about how proud I was to live in this community. We had just wrapped up our very own Hospice of Elgin, and I talked about how incredible it was to see people from all walks of life come together to support a cause that will touch us all in some way. From small individual donations to the generous contributions of the Barrie family, our community proved what can
If everyone chips in, through small fundraisers, big fundraisers, private donations, donations of time, corporate sponsorships, or maybe even a few government contributions, we can get Project Tiny Hope across the finish line. What an incredible accomplishment it would be to see our community once again come together and finish something that truly changes lives. I’ve been a proud supporter of the YWCA for many years, and I’ve seen firsthand how much good they do for our community. We are blessed here with so many organizations that genuinely care, from the hospital to hospice, from local shelters to food banks. But right now, Project Tiny Hope deserves to be at the top of our community’s to-do list. So whether you’re helping assemble furniture, donating, or simply spreading the word, let’s rally once again. Let’s show that the same spirit that brought us an MRI, or our very own hospice, can also help build hope -- tiny, perhaps, but mighty in impact. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: when this community decides to get something done… it gets done. Finally, I want to thank everyone for their patience during the Canada Post Strike. I appreciate the businesses who hosted copies of the magazines; our continued support from advertisers, and of course, you, our readers, who went out to pick up copies. Thank you all!
happen when we all pull in the same direction. Well, now that hospice is complete and the ribbon has been cut, it’s time for us to turn our collective gaze to another worthy cause that’s been patiently waiting its turn, Project Tiny Hope. Over the past few months, there’s been real progress with Project Tiny Hope. In fact, the first few families have already moved in! Recently, five local groups from Cole Munro, Royal Lepage Triland Realty, The Elgin St. Thomas London South Liberal Association, Masco and Enbridge came together to assemble furniture for the new residents, a small but meaningful gesture that perfectly captures the heart of this community. But here’s the thing, it’s not finished yet. Like that IKEA bookshelf we all swear will only take an hour (famous last words), this project still needs a few more pieces before it’s complete. This is where we come in.
