Christine Hayes is a WUL Hometown Hero nominated by Fairhaven’s Brian Robinson “For bringing joy and music to Fairhaven with the Drumming Program, and for raising funds to purchase drums so that Fairhaven can start to hold community drumming sessions in the future, thus enriching the lives of residents and the community.”

Brian said, “Christine brings incredible energy and passion to her volunteer work at Fairhaven, and has recently started bringing in university students to engage with and enrich our residents’ lives.  The future is bright to expand this to everyone in our community and we couldn’t thank Christine enough for all she does for us here at Fairhaven.”

WUL (Whitewater Unites Lives) is a locally-focused civil and human rights group that works to connect the people in our community and to create opportunities for all people to learn and support each other in our common humanity.
