Franzt’s Story

Meet Franzt

Meet Franzt, a passionate volunteer, dedicated healthcare worker, and proud father of three. Originally from Cameroon, Franzt and his family arrived in Canada just one year ago, embracing a new culture. He’s a permanent resident now, with his wife and kids, and together they’ve embraced the challenges and beauty of their new home.

Both Franzt and his wife are studying nursing at Laurentian University, and they both volunteer at the hospital. Franzt has found joy in volunteering, which he sees as a way to connect with people and integrate into the community. By volunteering, he not only improves his English (his first language is French!) but also practices empathy as he supports patients in different situations, always offering a helping hand.
