From East Vancouver to communities across the Lower Mainland, Jesse Johl is proving what real volunteerism looks like.

As the founder of the Queen Elizabeth Lions Club, Jesse leads a team of volunteers who collect and deliver thousands of pounds of food to families in need — all without government funding, pay, or red tape.

In this episode of the Ship of Fools Podcast, Jesse shares how he’s turning food waste into hope, the shocking truth about how much good food goes to landfills, and why he believes “community feeds more than the stomach—it feeds the soul.”

Listen in for an inspiring story of service, leadership, and what it means to truly serve others.
