“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.”
Those are the words that Katie Maclellan, a cashier at Riverside Market in Pembroke, kept close to her heart as she worked to raise $1,090 for the Robbie Dean Family Counselling Centre to help those suffering from mental health issues.
Local 1000A’s Southwestern Retail Franchise Division has a lot to celebrate after raising nearly $540 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada.
“I was overwhelmed by the money we raised,” said Kevin Bacon, President of the Southwestern Retail Franchise Division and a servicing staff representative with Local 1000A. “Thank you to our stewards and activists who agreed to sell tickets at their locations and a big thank you to our members for supporting this worthy cause.”

UFCW Canada Local 1000A is proud to congratulate the Ottawa Retail Franchise Division for its hard work and dedication in raising $1,320 in the fight against Leukemia & Lymphoma.
The division undertook multiple initiatives last year, including a TV raffle, book sales, and a bake sale to fundraise for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada. “All in all, we are very pleased and happy with everyone who participated in all these initiatives,” said Gord Knowles, President of the Ottawa Retail Franchise Division. “Without their support, we wouldn’t have been able to do what we did.”
