Volunteer Spotlight: Elizabeth

Elizabeth was originally from Columbia and came to Vancouver at the end of 2005. In January of 2006 she moved into our east Vancouver community, Charleswood Court. She is actively involved in the community and contributes a lot of time as a volunteer.

Besides her community involvement with More Than A Roof, Elizabeth volunteers as coordinator of 'Latino Women in Action.' She also volunteered with Quest Foods for two years.

Elizabeth helps to maintain the beautiful gardens that surround Charleswood Court and the plot gardens in the center courtyard.

Elizabeth assists our manager, Nery, when ever she can and always helps when youth groups volunteer in the community.

She also assists the other volunteers involved in cleaning around the building.

When not attending English classes, Elizabeth enjoys exercising, spending time with friends and family, and watching good movies.

Elizabeth is a great example of getting involved in community to make a difference!
