Christmas Cheer Board needs volunteers to deliver hampers around Winnipeg. (christmascheerboard.ca)
The Christmas Cheer Board is looking for some help delivering their hampers.
The charity starts delivering its hampers to needy Winnipeggers on Monday but its roster of drivers is looking thin, said executive director Kai Madsen.
"We'd really love to have some people come in and make sure these hampers get delivered," he said.
"Come in as a team, you know — two people, three's even better — because somebody can stay with the car and somebody can hold the door and so on. It makes for a fun afternoon."
If you can volunteer, call 204-989-5696.
