According to Neustaeter, the Thompson Nicola Cariboo branch has had workplaces in the region hold campaigns for over 50 years.

“We have had new ones step up even during a pandemic to say, ‘we recognize that we’re privileged to have jobs; to work in settings where things are stable, and we can give back,’” she says. “The dollars that are given locally benefit people locally. Your friends and your neighbours, who you might not even know are in need, your dollars care for them.”

Anyone interested in contributing to the campaign can keep their eyes peeled for local workplace campaigns, or donate online.
