Élise Audet began volunteering in her community in 1988, when she offered to help out at the local flea market. Her goal was to help disadvantaged families obtain reasonably priced, quality clothing. At that time, she also volunteered at the library, sharing her passion for reading with young and old alike. Since 2011, she has dedicated her time to military families, ensuring that activities organized for them run smoothly; she also bakes cookies, which are sold to benefit the United Way.
