Wendy Trueit’s Compassionate Act Shines in Tumbler Ridge Community
Wendy Trueit, a cook and co-owner of Twisted Seasons Bistro in Tumbler Ridge, faced a tragic situation after a mass shooting hit her community. Without hesitation, she took action by providing free meals to first responders and families of the victims.
The ripple effect of her kindness quickly spread far and wide, attracting support from not just within the local community, but also from across the globe. People from different parts of the world, including the U.S., Canada, and Europe, reached out to offer assistance, showing solidarity during this difficult time.
Trueit, overwhelmed by the outpouring of support, humbly accepted the generosity, using the donations to continue feeding healthcare workers, paramedics, police officers, firefighters, and those affected by the tragedy.
In addition to Trueit’s efforts, community members like Ted Ember from Fort St. John have also stepped up, demonstrating acts of kindness by delivering flowers as a gesture of care and compassion to Tumbler Ridge.
The community has also united through various fundraising initiatives, such as GoFundMe pages, which have collectively raised significant amounts to support the victims and their families.
Despite the darkness that enveloped Tumbler Ridge, these acts of kindness from both locals and strangers have provided a glimmer of light and hope. Trueit remains committed to serving free meals as long as needed, with support pouring in from unexpected sources like a school in Vancouver offering to cover the cost of meals for all.
