Meet our Volunteer of the Month, Lynn Hailstone!
“Lynn has been consistently volunteering as one of our Trader Joe’s pickup volunteers and it has been such a joy getting to know her. She has a contagious positive energy, which makes sorting through boxes and boxes of food FUN! We are so grateful for Lynn for all that she does for Maggie’s!”
– Kelly Williams, Volunteer Program Coordinator
Lynn + The Magdalen House = 💚
Started volunteering:
June 2021
Has donated a total of:
36 hours! This is valued at $1,027 for our organization, meaning Lynn has helped cover the costs of over 100 Big Books for our two-week First Step program clients! 📘
You can usually find her:
Sorting through our Trader Joe’s donation at Maggie’s! If not, you can find her dropping off the remaining donated items at a homeless shelter or food pantry.
I’ve never seen her without:
The plastic sheets that she keeps in her car to protect it from occasionally mushy Trader Joe’s fruit (such forethought!)
One time she:
Knew we were short one volunteer, so without any hesitation she volunteered to pick up the entire Trader Joe’s donation by herself. 💪
Our favorite thing about her is:
The positivity that she brings with her each Sunday! 💚
The Magdalen House wouldn’t be the same without her because:
We depend on our Trader Joe’s volunteers like Lynn to help provide for our First Step clients throughout the week!
