Program aimed
Post offices across southwestern Ontario
(Huron Division) are serving as collection
points for gifts and groceries for the less
fortunate this Christmas season, thanks to a
joint effort between the corporation and the
Salvation Army.
Called 'Operation Christmas Tree', the
program invites postal customers to leave an
item under the Christmas tree in the lobby
while they visit the post office. More than 20
centres in Huron Division have been
designated as drop-off points where Salva-
tion Army staff will make regular pickups
during December. Smaller offices who
participate have the option of sending their
collections to one of the designated centres,
or donating it to a local charity.
at needy
Anton Tiller, manager of retail sales for the
division, says the idea is a natural one for
Canada Post because local post offices
usually act as focal points for the community.
"The Salvation Army is very supportive of
our initiative," he explains, adding that
concerns that such a program might hamper
local drives already in place were unfounded
because "I have been assured by the
Salvation Army that they can never get
enough in their yearly drives for foodstuffs
and gifts. There's always room for one more
appeal, especially at Christmas,"
For more information, contact your local
post office, or call: Richard Bowness, Media
Relations, Huron Division, London, Ontario,
