Salvation Army Fire
Monday, May 5th, 2008 
The main distribution centre of the Toronto Salvation Army experienced a devastating fire on Sunday. Luckily, no one was injured, but food, clothing and toy donations were ruined. The damage is expected to total somewhere in the millions of dollars. The location was insured, of course, but officials are most concerned about not being able to meet food demands in the short term.
Since they haven’t yet fully assessed what can and can’t be salvaged - e.g. cereal boxes were damaged, but some canned goods might still be okay - the Salvation Army is asking for monetary donations. Contributions can be made online or by calling 1-800-SAL-ARMY. Please specify that your donation is for the Salvation Army Warehouse Fire. For more info about the story, click HERE.
