Mr. PG sports a new look

And they did.

It’s a 13-metre scarf and each colour symbolizes an organization that is struggling through the pandemic, especially as the Christmas season is such a busy time for giving. And, today is the National Day of Giving, so the scarf represents a reminder that, while they’re not obvious, those organizations still need your help.

According to the City’s website, organizations and non-profits can take photos at Mr. PG and post these on their social media channels along with information about the fundraising activities they are presenting. Posts that are tagged with #mrpg60 may be shared by Mr. PG via stories or posts on his Instagram channel (@therealmrpg) and the SupportPG channels.

Residents who donate to local non-profit organizations this month also have a chance to win an exact, human-sized replica of Mr. PG’s scarf, hand-knitted by the same women. To be eligible, residents simply need to comment with the name(s) of their favourite charities on the posts about Mr. PG and his scarf on City of Prince George, Tourism Prince George, and Mr. PG social media channels.

The comments need to be added by noon on December 21, with a winner randomly selected that afternoon.
