Happy New Year Nanaimo!
I'd like to thank you all for making New Year’s Eve a phenomenal success for Operation Red Nose. We broke records for most volunteers on a single night (41), most calls on a single night (118), largest number of people driven home on a single night (333), and records across the board for all final campaign results.
This year the Operation Red Nose campaign utilized 261 volunteers responding to 599 calls, driving more than 1500 people home safely for the holidays. Seeing these stats just makes me proud of our community.
Once again I would like to congratulate the community for making responsible choices and thank you for supporting Operation Red Nose this holiday season. Your efforts helped raise just over $10,000 for local athletes. That's an increase of about $2500 over last year’s campaign.
