Episode 111: Can’s Can Ministries
Episode 111
Wednesday, 21 October, 2026

What began with a teenager’s baseball card collection has grown into 26 years of service through Cans Can Ministries. Greg Poole and his family turn sports memorabilia into meals for seniors, beds for foster children, school supplies and so much more throughout rural Southern Illinois.In this powerful Season 11 premiere, Greg shares how personal heartbreak became a life of purpose, why his family is at the heart of everything he does, and how showing up for one person can change everything. His story is a reminder that we don’t need to know someone’s story to know they need help, and that sometimes the biggest wins begin with simply doing something for someone else.
