Introducing Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation volunteer, Yash*ta! 👋
Yash*ta started volunteering with the Foundation in April and has had the opportunity to participate in several events, including Simply Supper Ltd. Lemonade Stand Day, Stollery Superstars Party, Extra Life Edmonton Game Day, Snowflake Gala – and more!
When she's not volunteering, she works for the Health Research Ethics Board of Alberta (HREBA), bakes homemade treats for friends and colleagues, and has recently started swing dancing!
Let’s learn a bit about Yash*ta!
What is your favourite event to volunteer for? 📅
The Stollery parade at Spruce Grove Composite High School. The sense of community was incredible – families line the streets, kids were cheering, and there was so much joy in the air. Seeing how many people came together to support the Stollery made it such a fun, wholesome and memorable experience.
What has been your most impactful volunteer experience? 💜
Snowflake Gala – it was an incredibly elegant and inspiring evening that brought together so many generous supporters, families and community members in support of the Stollery.
What stood out most was witnessing the strength and joy of Stollery kids and their families — it was a powerful reminder of why this work matters and how deeply the community believes in supporting pediatric health care.
Thank you for all that you do to support Stollery kids, Yash*ta!
