Subject: Serious Concerns About Krystal's/Conduct
Hey everyone,
I need to address something really important about our coordinator, Krystal, and I want to make sure everyone is aware of what's been going on. This is going to be public, so let’s be real about it.
I've been volunteering here with my daughter for quite a while now, and I've seen and heard enough about Krystal to know there's a big problem. She’s consistently disorganized, inconsiderate, and dismissive of volunteers' needs. A lot of volunteers have come to me with their concerns about how she operates, and it’s clear she’s not invested in this organization or the community we're trying to serve.
Today was the last straw for me. My daughter and I Ubered half an hour to get here, and Krystal disrespected us publicly and ignored everything we needed. This isn’t just a one-time thing—this is a pattern. I was planning to share a generous donation from my partner's company to help the food bank and offer properties for silent auctions, but I'm not doing that anymore because of Krystal.
This is not just my opinion; it's a widely known issue. Many volunteers have complained about her lack of professionalism and respect, but they’re often too intimidated to say anything because of her attitude. Some volunteers also rely on the food provided by the organization, and Krystal uses her position of authority to take advantage of that, treating them poorly because she knows they need the help.
I want to make it clear that I'm going to be following up on this. I'll be leaving Google reviews, writing letters to the organization, and contacting Julie and any other superiors. This needs to be known: what Krystal is doing is a disgrace to volunteering. We’re here to serve our community, and she’s making it personal and unbearable.
For any new volunteers or those planning to join us soon, be aware of how this organization is run and who they’ve chosen to lead. This food bank is ranked number three in all of Ontario or Toronto, and it's crucial that the leadership reflects the dedication and respect we all have for our community.
I also want to highlight that I’ve done this type of volunteering many times in the U.S. and abroad. I’ve not only donated but also offered properties as vacation rentals for auctions, which have worked amazingly well for my children's schools and to raise money in the communities I’ve lived in. I was more than willing to do the same here, but now I'm just so put off and disgusted. Everyone should be aware of what’s going on in this organization on the volunteer front. I've heard rumors about other issues, but this is very real and should be acknowledged and not ignored.
This is really hard for both myself and my daughter. There’s nothing we love more than the amazing, incredible volunteers who give their time and support on a weekly basis to show up for people in our community in need. I want to make sure they are given so much credit because they do this without pay, without acknowledgment, and with feverish dedication to the people around us. Yet, Krystal is pushing away the kindest and most considerate people in this community because of her own selfish actions.
Julie, I strongly disagree with keeping this private. I think it’s imperative that every volunteer is made very much aware of what’s going on in this organization. This is a volunteer-based program, not a private practice. That’s why I did this on a public forum. Just to be completely clear, Julie, this is not private; it’s public.
Attention, Julie and volunteers of this group: If anyone else has concerns about Krystal, I urge you to voice them to Julie. It's time we stand up for the respect and dedication we all deserve.
Thanks for listening.

Hi Julie,
I wanted to clarify that I am a volunteer, not an employee. I do not work for you, and I am not concerned with your opinions, as my focus is solely on helping to feed homeless individuals and those who cannot afford to eat.
I am not interested in discussing politics. If you need any information about the operation
