Hampers to help singles couples and especially seniors during Christmas are expanding as area groups schools and businesses join RFDA in the Be the Reason for the Season campaign. Last year 1600 hampers were distributed in Thunder Bay and organizers expect higher totals this year amid a citywide food crisis.
