Balanced News: Saint John business owner giving back one warm piece of clothing at a time

After seeing overwhelming support for local businesses during the 2021 holiday season, Jill Laskey began looking for a way to give back in her new home of Saint John. “There was this huge push from the city of Saint John to support local so I had tonnes of people coming in and buying a lot of Christmas presents,” she said. The wall is a collection of warm clothing — from sweaters and hats, to pajamas and scarves — outside Laskey’s store in Saint John City Market.
