LINDA HAINES

Linda started volunteering at Colonel’s Island in 2000. In 2003, she helped design the new store on Colonel’s Island. The store began with about 25 products and now stocks nearly a thousand. One of Linda’s main responsibilities is purchasing all the products for the Colonel’s Island store. She currently purchases products from six different sources. For the last five years, she has also put together the silent auction for our major fundraiser, the International Night Out. Linda says, “Working for the International Seafarer’s Center is so dear to my heart. Seeing and helping the smiling faces each day makes all the busy work worthwhile.”
