As the need in the community continues to grow, so does the local 663 Plumbers and Steamfitters contribution to the Salvation Army's Christmas Drive.
At the union hall Friday morning, monetary donations poured in from various community associations including $2,255 from Scotiabank and $25,000 from Kelgor.
