On local news here in Edmonton. Pretty amazing what he's doing. I know they were really hurting for volunteers too, so I'm sure his help is appreciated.

Love this quote: “We’re all in it together. It’s called the human race. It helps just to help each other. Just get involved, do good deeds and the rest will take care of itself." That's a great POV to have.
