The Bill Shaw Salvation Army Christmas Fund had another successful year, raising nearly $160,000 to help people in Cumberland County and beyond during the holidays and throughout the year.
Since 1923, The Fayetteville Observer has partnered with the Salvation Army, raising millions for the Bill Shaw Salvation Army Christmas Fund, named for the late Observer photographer who for years managed the fund and was one of its top advocates.
