April 22 is Administrative Professionals’ Day and we want to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to our Executive Assistant Nicole Wiebe and our unit clerks for Menno Home and Menno Hospital: Am Purewal, Anna Hannemann, Aveneet Malhi, Hedy Somes, Judy Booth, Mandeep Kaur, Nilofar Rezaie, Shayla Litwin, Teresa Halovich and Vinitia Hingu.
Thank you for the ways you lead, the ways you support, and all the work you do managing complex and often sensitive information. Resident and family-centred care is all in the details and so many of those details are in your hands. Thank you.


Ignite Volunteerism is a year‑long, international initiative that celebrates the power of civic participation and the meaningful impact volunteers have in our community. In recognition of National Volunteer Week, April 19–25, 2026, we proudly celebrate the generosity of our volunteers who dedicate their time, skills, and energy to serving the residents of Menno Place.
Our 150 volunteers support our recreation, rehabilitation, and pastoral care programs, and their commitment enriches lives every day. We extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every volunteer for their dedication, compassion, and unwavering service.
“I’m so thankful for our volunteers, whose heart and compassion are evident every time they engage with and support our residents. I’m always inspired by their commitment and care for our community” – Audrey Mazzei, Volunteer Coordinator
