Menno Place’s 70th Anniversary – Call for Stories

As any of our seniors on campus could tell you, a lot can happen in 70 years!

As Menno Place staff, we’ve had the privilege of serving the community of Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley for generations. In September, we’d like to capture some of the incredible stories of these families on video and share them with our community!

Has more than one generation of your family been on staff here? Has more than one generation of your family received care at Menno Place?

We’d love to hear from you! 

If you’d like to be considered for this special storytelling opportunity, please let us know by filling out the form below. Our communications team will contact you to gather more information and determine how we can best tell your story.
