It’s that time of year again and the Salvation Army Community Centre is taking applications for hampers online this year. If you know of anyone who is in the Saskatoon area and in need of help this Christmas, they can apply at the Centre or they can apply online and someone from the Centre will get in contact with them to confirm the information.

Good luck. We have a friend in Newmarket who is a single mom with one child. I remembered years ago when I was young my parents used to get a Christmas hamper from the Salvation Army. We knew a Christmas hamper would be a welcome gift for the Christmas season so we advised her to look into getting one. She found a number and called. After going there to apply and giving what we think was an excessive amount of personal information including copies of welfare benefit statements they refused her application. We’ve decided to simply assemble a hamper for her ourselves and have it delivered. I suppose you can be poor but just not poor enough…
