With the flashing bright lights and festive activities during Christmastime, it's easy to forget how tough this time of the year maybe for some people. "With more people than ever living at or below the poverty line, the face of poverty is changing, especially here in B.C. The demand for Salvation Army programs and services has never been higher," says Sipili Molia Community Relations Coordinator for the Salvation Army. Every donation to a Christmas kettle remains in the community in which it was given in order to meet local needs. The Salvation Army relies on the generous support from the community to provide life-changing, innovative programming and education to assist individuals and families find a way out of poverty permanently.
