Being named an Ontario Junior Citizen is just one of Abby Mitchell’s accomplishments.
The eight-year-old Port Dover resident received the recognition this past March for her work with her own newspaper and fundraising efforts for the Port Dover Lifeline Foodbank.
The Grade 2 started the paper during the pandemic to spread a message to the people in the area.
Since starting The Abby Post, Mitchell has been able to raise money for the foodbank.
She also got to see how the foodbank operates.
The The Lakewood Elementary School student hopes to continue her paper in the future.
