Boyd Loveless, the owner of Nutri-Lawn, a lawn care and weed control company in St. John’s, N.L., always believed in giving back to the community. What began as a food drive in 2008 soon grew into a clothing drive, and that effort has continued to flourish. Today, it has become a fully stocked community resource known as Grandma’s Closet, filled with clothing contributions for anyone in need.

Through a collaboration with PHARA Community Services in North Bay, Ont., The Salvation Army has provided PHARA with equipment at no cost for use in the program. Individuals can borrow equipment through PHARA’s Assistive Devices Program for up to 90 days at no charge.
