Help for Local Food Banks



Harbour Lights - the 15th Annual Campaign

$50,000 will light the star atop the Harbour Lights tree.
2011 Donations to date Harbour Lights Total: 110,726.66

The Harbour Lights TreeThe Harbour Light Campaign raises money each year for food banks in Southern New Brunswick... from St. Stephen to Saint John to Sussex.
Each year the Saint John Port Authority installs a giant Christmas tree made of hundreds of twinkling lights near the Saint John harbour.
Each two dollar donation lights a bulb. And as December progresses bulb by bulb the tree is lit. Once that year's financial goal is met, the star on top is lit up, too!

Do they do anything like this in other cities?
