During the first annual Little Chicago Show & Shine - which was held on the same day as the Toy Run - in September some car buffs took it upon themselves to collect toys for the Salvation Army. It is an effort much appreciated by the local Salvation Army.

The Moose Jaw Salvation Army kicked off their 2022 Christmas Kettle Campaign this morning.
This year’s goal is the same $65,000 as last years with the Salvation Army stating the economy makes this year’s campaign an important one as people are struggling against rising costs to live.
According to Lt Lester Ward of the local Salvation Army without the campaign and the generosity of the people of Moose Jaw hundreds of people - many of them children - would have nothing to eat or gifts without the campaign.
This is the largest fundraiser of the year for the Salvation Army and funds go beyond Christmas to continue to help those in need.
