Salvation Army faced with huge shortfall

The Salvation Army is faced with a massive shortfall.

Captain Karen Holland said the Salvation Army Chatham-Kent Ministries is struggling to make their campaign goal this holiday season.

“Last year the C-K community helped us raise $490,000, which allowed us to meet the needs of the vulnerable and marginalized living in our county,” she said.

“This year, our goal is set at $500,000. As of December 13th, 2018, we are short $80,000 in our Kettle Campaign and short $166,000 in our mail-out campaign with only 11 days left.”

Holland said they are asking individuals, businesses and whoever is able, to help them reach their goal.

“This money is what helps us to provide our services not only at Christmas, but throughout the year,” she added.
