The Salvation Army reports thanks to contributions from donors, volunteers and community partners they raised 22 million dollars nationally during their 124th Christmas kettle campaign. They note donations to the campaign will remain in the local communities in which they were raised and will help the Salvation Army in the fight against poverty throughout Canada.
As we reported earlier the Christmas kettle campaign in Flin Flon raised 14,743 dollars which was just slightly below their goal of 15 thousand.
The Christmas kettle campaign is the Salvation Army’s annual fundraiser and the largest charitable effort of the year for the non-profit organization.
