Meet Eddie, owner of Lapper Entertainment & Security. Not only does Eddie provide excellent security services all throughout the year for our community, he’s always finding ways to fundraise and give back to those in need. One story that really stood out to us was hearing that Eddie, along with the help of his generous friends and supporters, gathered together webcams for our Kamloops Hospice Association. During the COVID-19 pandemic, so many services like the Hospice, have had to restrict family and friends visiting their loved ones. Our local Hospice did a call out to the community for webcams and Eddie immediately stepped into action. Thanks to this amazing initiative, the guests staying at the Hospice now have access to virtual visits with their family and friends, which is so, so important during their final days.

It doesn’t end there, when Eddie heard that the BC Girl Guides were worried about selling this seasons stock due to the pandemic, he purchased 10 cases and has donated them to places like The Mustard Seed and those in our marginalized community. You might also recognize Eddie from “Ed the Security Guy’s Charity Christmas Tree Pick-up”, an annual fundraiser he started to raise money for our hospice.

The list goes on! Clearly Eddie, his team at Lapper and his friends/supporters, are some of Kamloops’ true Caremongers. Eddie, thank you for all that you do. Kamloops is so lucky to have you.
