Santa’s Helper: Final Update

loading...

As we conclude the Santa’s Helper fundraiser for 2006, we wish to thank the following individuals and organizations whose gifts arrived this past week. Together with the many generous donations already acknowledged, we are pleased to report that a total of $44,634 was raised for The Salvation Army. While a little shy of our goal, this tremendous outpouring from around the region has brought comfort and joy to many families. Thanks to all who gave to the Santa’s Helper Fund this year. Your kindness is greatly appreciated and will long be remembered.

Happy New Year!
