Join Caring People Like Leighan

For Leighan Campeau, giving back to her community has always been a priority. She has seen the needs of her neighbors and works to help them through donating and volunteering at TrueNorth.

“We always thought it was important to give and to help people,” says Leighan about why she and her family support TrueNorth. “My husband and I feel like we are very fortunate in circumstances and in life, and so that’s why we want to make sure we always help people.” Leighan and her husband have been long-time donors at TrueNorth and have started giving monthly to make an even greater impact. 

Leighan has also started giving through her time by volunteering at TrueNorth’s Food Center. From being a friendly face helping participants, to stocking shelves and helping wherever is needed, Leighan continues to better her community. She has volunteered over 225 hours since starting in early 2023. Leighan says, “The need is great…being able to help out makes me feel good.”

Not only does Leighan personally help her neighbors, but she also gets her two sons involved to teach the importance of giving back. Leighan and one of her sons most recently helped pack backpacks for Tools for School this past summer–helping provide school supplies to area children in need.

“It just helps us all realize together that there is a need,” reflects Leighan on the importance of volunteering as a family. “There are others that struggle, and if you can help out, you should.”

You can join caring people like Leighan by supporting TrueNorth’s Generate Generosity campaign. Launching on Giving Tuesday, join us for a day of volunteerism at the TrueNorth Service Center. Our goal is to engage 100 donors and 300 volunteers by the end of 2024, and we need your help! Donate or volunteer today to personally offer a hand up to our neighbors in need.
