Summary
After 42 years of tireless service, Terry Deets is retiring from the Calgary Food Bank — and his legacy is sparking a $15,000 fundraising push to fight food insecurity. As one of the organization’s most iconic volunteers, Terry helped grow the food bank from a church basement to a major community hub, logging countless hours sorting food, managing hampers, and energizing others to join the cause. With volunteers making up nearly 60% of the workforce and contributing over 200,000 hours annually, Terry’s story embodies how one person’s dedication can transform lives — and how his spirit will keep feeding communities long after he’s gone.
