Salvation Army hosts much more than kettles to help those in need continued from p.1 The kettle campaign kicked off Nov. 15 at the downtown Oakville Christmas tree-lighting ceremony in Towne Square. Now, kettles are at 12 Oakville locations, including Oakville Place, Hopedale Mall, Walmart, Fortinos, Real Canadian Superstore and, as of Dec. 2, at all Oakville LCBO locations -- kettles operate Monday-Saturday until Dec. 24. Budds' Chevrolet Cadillac Buick GMC donated an SUV to shuttle kettles and collect donations during the campaign. Volunteers are needed to cover three-hour shifts, in the morning, afternoon or evening. Anyone interested can contact kettle co-ordinator Ingrid Kyriacopoulos at 289-952-1012 or tsaoakvillekettles@cogeco.net. Last year's campaign raised $110,000 -- shy of the $135,000 goal. This year's target is $110,000. Donations, by mail or in person, are welcome at The Salvation Army of Oakville, 1225 Rebecca St., Oakville, ON, L5L 1Z1, Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Donations by credit card can be made by phone at 905-827-5324, ext. 24.
