The on-air 18-hour CJTT FM Christmas Wish fundraiser may be over, but the real grunt work begins when volunteers put together the items handed out to needy families at Christmas from the fundraising campaign. This year the fundraiser raised $20,000 more than last year coming in at a record $88,277.17. Approximately 20 volunteers spend many hours shopping for clothing, books and toys for area children.
