Salvation Army Christmas Assistance Registration Opening Up

KAWARTHA LAKES-Can you hear the jingle bells jingling? Christmas is coming, which means it’s time to register for a Christmas Hamper if you need some help this holiday season.

The Fenelon Falls Salvation Army is currently taking registrations. A specific pick-up time for your Christmas FOOD Hamper will be provided (week of Dec 13-17).

The Fenelon Falls branch covers the following communities:

Fenelon Falls (K0M 1N0)

In lieu of toys for children this year, the Salvation Army Fenelon Falls will be providing Gift Cards to help you purchase gifts that are appropriate to your family’s needs. You will be asked to share your preferred store(s) for purchasing gifts for your children, and they will do their best to accommodate your preferences. Gift cards will be distributed at a specific time before your food hamper so that you have time to shop.

Please submit only one registration form per household.

It’s an online application, but if help is needed in filling it out, please call 705-887-1408.
