Donations to the Times 91Ô´´ Christmas Fund continued through the weekend, taking the total raised so far to $892,643.25.
The money we raise is used to help people in need through the holiday season and beyond.
Our fund supports 55 charitable organizations throughout Greater Victoria, up-Island as far as Campbell River, and the Gulf Islands.
The money helps these groups provide food, hygiene products, toys and more to a wide variety of people, including seniors and the working poor.
Our goal this year is to surpass the $1.12 million we raised in the 2023 campaign.
