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, 679-5050 ext. 206.
