Thousands in Donations, Toys Raised for Cheer Board

December 14, 2009 7:08 AM CDT | News

CURVE 94.3 - 99.9 BOB FM Christmas Miracle 2008

Winnipeggers are a generous bunch, and that proved true December 10, 11 and 12 during CHUM Radio’s 27th annual Christmas Miracle. The three-day event raised over $52,000 and 5,400 toys for the Christmas Cheer Board.

Despite the massive number of donations, the Cheer Board still needs your help. There’s a shortage of drivers to deliver hampers to families across the city. Deliveries started December 12 and organizers hope to have everything out by December 23.

If you can lend a few hours of your time, please call 989-5680.
