Seasonal Opportunities
Register to Ring
Wal-mart and Schnuck's locations are already available to reserve for 2024!
It's no secret to any of us that people can struggle in lots of different ways. The Salvation Army is dedicated to meeting SO many needs of those struggling in the community. I am sure that you all are familiar with The Salvation Army’s red kettles and bell ringers during the Holiday season. For most of us, it just enhances that “feels like Christmas feeling” when we are out and about shopping over the Holiday’s. The bell ringing does more than just signal it’s “the most wonderful time of the year”. The donations raised from the red kettle campaign provide daily meals, utility resources, youth programs and Christmas toys and food boxes for families in need. The ringing of the bell represents hope. Would you consider “ringing hope” into your community this Holiday season?
