CBC Nova Scotia's Do Crew scrubs Spryfield YWCA
A big thank you to all of the volunteers who came out to help
In its most recent project, CBC Nova Scotia's Do Crew rolled up its sleeves and scrubbed a local child care centre clean.
Volunteers, including MLA Brendan Maguire and CBC reporter Stephen Puddicombe, donned rubber gloves and spent the afternoon scrubbing walls, play surfaces and steam cleaning rugs at the Spryfield YWCA's Early Learning and Child Care Centre.
"If you imagine tiny cubbies, full of tiny jackets and tiny shoes that get touched and touched and touched several times a day. So taking out every tiny jacket and pair of shoes and wiping them down is a huge effort. To have a Do Crew to do that work is quite outstanding," says Mia Suokonautio, the executive director of the YWCA in Spryfield.
A big thank you to Brendan, Stephen, Carol, Michelle, Nora, Trudy, Kevin, Johnny, Phil and Sarah for being part of this month's Do Crew!
For a few hours every month, alongside Louise, the Do Crew — consisting of CBC listeners, viewers and readers — lends a hand at an event or fundraiser for a local organization.
