12th Annual CBC Comfort & Joy Campaign
Raising funds in support of the Food Banks of Saskatchewan
CBC Saskatchewan wishes to thank all our listeners and viewers who donated towards feeding nearly 1600 less fortunate families this holiday season. Thanks to your generosity, our 12th Annual CBC Comfort and Joy Campaign was a great success, raising $59,767! (which will be doubled by PotashCorp). We are very grateful to be part of such a supportive community!
On behalf of the Saskatchewan Food Banks:
« Thank you for putting hope on the table this holiday season with your ongoing support of the Saskatchewan Food Banks.
As we prepare to gather for the holidays, we are reminded of special Christmas memories. Many of our most precious memories are those shared around the dinner table with family and friends.
Your gift is much more than food. It is the gift of the holiday spirit for those families we are fortunate to serve.
In addition, PotashCorp will be matching all financial donation up to $1 million dollars to food banks across Saskatchewan. Your donations will be doubled through your pledge.
We wish you and your families a warm and wonderful holiday season. For all you do, thank you from the Saskatchewan Food Banks. »
