Almost $155,000 has been raised by NB Liquor through a partnership with the Canadian Red Cross.
During the recent four-day campaign, customers were asked at the cash if they wanted to donate to the Red Cross to support relief efforts in Fort McMurray.
NB Liquor president/CEO Brian Harriman is commending New Brunswickers for the overwhelming response.
Red Cross spokesperson Bill Lawlor says he’s awestruck by the generosity and adds he’s never seen so much money raised so quickly in a fundraiser.
