Ep. 8 - Alice Lam | The story of Good Neighbour
Notas del episodio
In this episode of The GOODNITE Show, hosts Jordan Geske and Brett Robidoux sit down with Alice Lam, one of the founders of Good Neighbour — a nonprofit initiative providing clothing, food, and essentials to people in need.
Alice shares the inspiring story behind how Good Neighbour began, the spark that launched the project, and how it has grown thanks to hundreds of volunteers donating their time, skills, and compassion. From humble beginnings to a full community-powered operation, this episode reveals the impact that small acts of kindness can make.
Jordan and Brett also surprise Alice with a video: filmed 2 days earlier, they visited a Goodwill store with the mission of spending $1,000 on winter jackets, gloves, sweaters, snow pants, toques, and more. Since Goodwill directs $0.91 of every dollar back into local programs, this donation becomes a “double impact” — supporting two charities at once.
After the surprise, Alice discusses how anyone can get involved and why even the smallest gesture — like purchasing a single $5 item from their Amazon wish list — can change someone’s day, or even their life.
An inspiring conversation about generosity, community, and the power of people helping people.
