If you’ve been in Sackville more than a few minutes, you’ve probably come across an event organized or supported by the Kinettes. I was overjoyed to be joined at Province House by three of our community’s most dedicated volunteers and to give them some well-deserved recognition!
You can watch the recorded Member Statement below:
PAUL WOZNEY « » : I rise to honour Sackville’s Kinettes, a group of tireless volunteers who have proven themselves a fixture of community organizing in Sackville, to the point where it seems wherever a charitable event is held, the Kinettes can be found close by. They’re an integral link between the people who make up our community and the organizations that support them. Whether through a dance, a round of bingo, or a local artist market, the Kinettes are experts at mobilizing generosity and directing it where it’s needed most.
This summer, the Kinettes made an important donation to the Cobequid Health Centre Foundation in the form of five Leatherman Raptor® Rescue tools, a combination of seatbelt cutter, glass breaker, ring cutter, and more. They were also indispensable in organizing this year’s Feed the Need Food Drive. It’s with great pride and admiration that I announce that this past weekend the Kinettes and Kinsmen raised $115 and 25 banana boxes worth of food for the Feed the Need Food Drive.
I humbly request all those present to join me in congratulating these irreplaceable volunteers on their success and their cornerstone role in making Sackville a brilliant place to live. Thank you.
