The Salvation Army’s slogan is “Doing the Most Good” and they live up to it. They give those without a home a safe and warm place to stay and their kitchen serves 3 meals a day!

They’re still looking for bell ringers and donors for their Red Kettle Campaign. You can sign up to ring HERE and donate online HERE.
They’ve had a generous outpouring from the community for their Angel Giving Tree Program but are still in need of items to help: food for baskets like peanut butter, jelly, cans of green beans, cake mix, frosting, and Ramen noodles.
