Grace Hansen
“I applied to volunteer at Gleaners in 2019, 4 months after moving to Creston. I often stopped at Gleaners in previous years on my way to visit family in Alberta. Several of the ladies, Marlene in particular would be working at the till and they were so friendly and cheerful that I always wanted to come back. When I moved here, I thought Gleaners would be a happy place to work with cheerful staff. I look forward to every Monday morning. It’s a great place to be.”
