A texting campaign raising more than 66-thousand-dollars for the families of the fallen RCMP officers in Moncton since it was launched late Friday afternoon.
Former New Brunswick Premier Bernard Lord is the Chair of the Mobile Giving Foundation Canada.
He says the risks are real and unforturnately events like what happened last week remind us we need to remain vigilant and support the people who protect us and support their famillies when they suffer a traumatic loss.
He tells CHSJ News 100-percent of the donations go to the families. To donate, text the keyword Moncton to the shortcode 4-5-6-7-8 to make a 20-dollar donation.
