Kettle Campaign off to a great start
The Christmas Kettle Campaign is off to a ‘great start’ according to staff at the local fundraiser.
The annual campaign started on Nov. 25 to raise money and toys for local families in need. Lieutenant Laura Van Schaick with the Salvation Army said the group received positive responses from Prince Albert community.
“It was wonderful to see people’s smiling faces wishing us Merry Christmas, putting in those coins, and (I was) just encouraged by the generosity,” she said.
Van Schaick said they are still counting the amount of the donation, and the result for last weekend would likely to come out by the end of Monday.
