Faith Browning Speaks on why she Enjoys Volunteering

Faith Browning is a resident of Vegreville and a Grade Nine student at Vegreville Composite High School. Faith really likes to spend her time volunteering. “I started volunteering because my parents did a lot of volunteering and this made me want to too. Also, my grandma who passed away did a lot of volunteering and I thought that even though she is gone, it doesn’t mean I couldn’t do my best to do what she did,” Faith said.

“I mostly volunteer for Senior Citizen Sunshine Club of Vegreville. I have also volunteered for Family and Community Support Services (FCSS) to help them with Sizzlin’ Summer program and different events during the year.

“I volunteer because it is a fun way to be a part of the community and meet new people. It also teaches a person different skills and things that could be useful for life. The challenge is you may have some people who don’t like how things are run but most of the time, people enjoy seeing people volunteer,” Faith added.
