SALISBURY — The Christmas Happiness Fund has been a part of the Rowan County community for more than 60 years and is a reminder that any little bit can help make a child smile on Christmas.

The contributions help those eligible families purchase toys and clothes for their children.

Christmas Happiness donations are accepted at the Salisbury Post, and the money is distributed by the Salvation Army. The fund supports local children who may not otherwise receive many or any gifts at Christmas.

Contributions to the Christmas Happiness Fund may be delivered to the Salisbury Post, 131 W. Innes St., between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. weekdays or mailed to Salisbury Post Christmas Happiness Fund, P.O. Box 4639, Salisbury, NC 28145-4639.

Make checks payable to Christmas Happiness Fund and indicate how you want your donation listed.
