WINNIPEG Manitoba charities say they are falling short of annual goals amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Traditionally, the holidays are known as the giving season, when charities like the Salvation Army receive a large portion of their donations, but that didn’t happen this year. “2020 has definitely been a struggle, not only for many individuals out there but organizations as well trying to look for donor dollars,” said Major Jamie Rands, public relations for the Prairie region of the Salvation Army. With no traditional kettle campaign, Rands said the Salvation Army in Manitoba has only received 10 per cent of its $530,000 goal.
