United Way campaign falls short of its $85,000 goal in a tough economy.
The United Way Tree of Lights campaign in Prince George has come to a close, and has raised a total of $56,135 towards its goal of $85,000.
Organizers say this year's campaign was particularly challenging due to the ongoing effects of the pandemic and a tough economy. “Despite these obstacles, we are grateful to the community for their generosity and support in helping to raise funds for social service programming in Prince George,” said the United Way of Northern B.C. in a press release.
The United Way Tree of Lights is a beloved holiday tradition in Prince George, and involves the lighting of an approximately 60ft tree in the heart of the city atop Coast Prince George Hotel by APA. The tree is meant to be a symbol of hope and togetherness for thousands of people in the community. “We are deeply grateful to everyone who donated their time, money, and efforts to make this year's United Way Tree of Lights campaign a success. Your generosity and support is what makes this holiday tradition possible, and we hope to continue to bring joy and hope to the people of Prince George for many years to come,” said the United Way, also thanking title sponsor Canfor for its contributions towards this year’s campaign.
