The Salvation Army is asking people to give online at SalvationArmy.ca , by phone at 1-800 -SAL-ARMY or in person at one of its 2,000 Christmas kettles.

Spokesman Lt.-Col. John Murray said mail-in donations are “the bedrock” of the Army ’s fundraising efforts.

He attributed that drop to a shorter holiday period because U.S. Thanksgiving landed somewhat later in the calendar.
