Total: $29,840

Goal: $15,000

A few more donations arrived to the 2022 Give-A-Christmas campaign, bringing the total raised to $29,540.

“These contributions will offer additional help to The Salvation Army, which benefits from the campaign,” said Sparkle, the Christmas Star.

The Herald-Standard’s Give-A-Christmas project supports programs at local units of The Salvation Army, including those in Uniontown, Connellsville, Masontown and Markleysburg. The campaign is wrapping up its 37th year.

“Our goal was $15,000, and through all these generous donations, we nearly doubled that,” Sparkle said. “Thank you to everyone who helped The Salvation Army this year!”
