    Witnessing the Slave Lake Destruction

    July 29, 2011 • 2:03 pm

    Hi guys,

    I want to share an article that the Red Cross posted yesterday about my recent visit to Slave Lake. If you saw my tweet yesterday you might know that I am now a part of the Red Cross Twitter Team and I got the chance to work with the Red Cross while I was visiting Slave Lake.

    It was overwhelmingly sad to see all of the destroyed homes in Slave Lake (where I spent all of my summers growing up) but I have to tell you, the people of Slave Lake inspired me with their positivity and resilience.

    I spoke with so many amazing people that had incredible strength even though they lost everything and my visit inspired me to reach out and help as much as I can! Here are some images from my visit and if you'd like to see more photos check out my Slave Lake Relief album here.

    You can read the article about my visit here and if you’re able to donate or volunteer in any way please check out the Canadian Red Cross site. Thank you for supporting the people of Slave Lake!


    Have you been able to reach out to the people of Slave Lake at all? Tell me about it below!
