Village Spotlight

Karen North is one of those quiet volunteers in the Canning area who gives of her time for so many organisations and needs. She’s always there working tirelessly toward the goal, whatever it is. Some of her efforts include:

Valley Hospice Steering Committee
Valley Regional Hospital Foundation
Canning medical clinic advocate
Syrian refugee family sponsorship committee
Volunteered with Kosovo refugees
Canning Village community activities like the annual picnic (and she makes a mean soup for the Canning Christmas Tree Lighting Event!)
Youth Leadership committee
Fundraising for the Canning Fire Department/MultiComplex
Canning Recreation board treasurer

Karen and her husband, Blaine, offer their home for fundraising dinners and musical fundraising performances, and she regularly undertakes fundraising and volunteering with her church. Together, they provide one of their outbuildings at no charge to a community fitness group.

As a local advocate for anyone in need, Karen is always looking for ways to help others, including the migrant workers who help support our local economy with their work. She’s a very valuable, cherished member of our community and worthy of a tip o’ the hat in our wonderful Village of Canning!
