Laundry dilemma solved PAGE 35 FOOD BANK HELPED N. Vancouver ishoeshiner has heart of gold IT’S probably the best shine in town, with half the cost going to charity. North Vancouver's Joe Jesseau is donating half of his fee from each shoeshine to the Vancouver Fooa Bank. Jesseau, 46, charges $2 per shine and works out of the tower level of the Royal Centre Mall. He’s been at the same spot, near the escalator, for the past 2% years. Last Monday he visited the food bank and was given posters and a food collection box, which he has placed beside his place of business. “Et went by the church and saw the big soup line and figured how lucky we are,’* he said. It was for this reason Jesseau decided to raise money for others. He raised $20 in two days after beginning his fund-raising venture, and blames the low amount on the rain. He expects business to improve now that the weather has improv- ed. desseau enjoys working out of the Royal Centre Mall and has made many friends in the area, where he's known as ‘‘friendly Joe.” To contribute to Jesseau’s fund-raising campaign, prospective customers can find him at the mall six days a week, excli.ding Sunday, from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. DRAPERIES AND BLINDS NEWS photo Stuart Davis AGSBEY BLINDS & SHADES AFTER WALKING past a food bank line and seeing the numbers in need, Joe Jesseau decided he could help.
