Running for Mayor: Glenn Hilke
KAMLOOPS — Glenn Hilke is in the business of helping those without a home, running the JUMP program on the North Shore, serving meals all day to the people who need it.
Growing up in Brooklyn and in the non-profit sector his entire life, Hilke wants to bring that mentality to city hall as the next mayor.
“It’s the waiting part that has really frustrated me and driven me to run for mayor,” said Hilke, who started with the JUMP program on Royal Avenue five years ago. “We’ve had in our Kam Plan for a decade now we need more housing. I’m not just talking about affordable housing.”
