Christmas Cheer campaign chair Joleene Kemp is ecstatic about the generosity of Thunder Bay
“They have opened their hearts, they’ve opened their purse strings and have done things that probably under normal conditions wouldn’t be happening,” says Kemp. “When I went to the schools and the children presented big cheques, you filled up with tears because they were so excited that they could do something and they knew that if they didn’t do something it wouldn’t happen and they don’t want their friends to be left out this Christmas.”
