The Times 91Ô´´ Christmas Fund reached $645,000 on Saturday, closing in on the 2020 goal of $700,000.
It got a further boost thanks to donations made during the online Tuba Christmas concert, which was live-streamed on CHEK’s Facebook page.
The fund helps people in need during the Christmas season — and this year, the need is greater than ever before. If we exceed our target, no problem; we will find ways to put that money to good use in your community.
