RED SHIELD CAMPAIGN
The Salvation Army’s 88th National Red Shield Campaign runs during the month of May.
The theme of this year’s campaign is “Open Your Eyes”.
Every year the Miramichi Community “sees the need” and responds generously to support The Salvation Army to “meet the needs” of our local people. We are able to provide food, clothing, temporary shelter or transportation and referral to agencies and treatment centres with the funds that are raised right here. We are planning to open an emergency shelter in the Miramichi in the near future. Red Shield Funds would assist in making the shelter a reality.
The 2007 Miramichi Red Shield fundraising target is $18,500.00. We are inviting individuals, families, churches, service groups and staff members from businesses, restaurants and schools to partner with us to reach our goal. Our challenge to Miramichiers is to donate “A Dollar A Day For The Month of May”.
REGISTER to participate in the challenge by CALLING 622-7826 and receive a free Loonie Roller which holds 25 Loonies. You may also mail or deliver your donation directly to The Salvation Army Community Resource Center Office at 231 Pleasant St., Miramichi, NB E1V 1Y6. (an official tax receipt will be issued)
All Loonie Rollers and donations must be received by June 5th, 2007.
OPEN YOUR EYES MIRAMICHI! SEE the need! SEE the solution! SEE what YOU CAN DO!
