HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — We're heading into the 'Season of Giving' and the Salvation Army is looking for your help during their Red Kettle campaign.
The 2024 Red Kettle Campaign Kickoff is Friday, November 15 at 11:00am at Ray Pearman Lincoln and will feature live music and a visit from Santa!
The Salvation Army has been around for more than 150 years and the mission stays the same.
And a lot of the ways they're able to help those in need is through the support of the community.
Every year they host one of their biggest fundraisers, the 'Red Kettle' campaign.
I'm sure you're familiar with the site of a red kettle outside your local grocery store and the sound of a bell ringing with a smiling person wishing you a "happy holidays."
But you might not know where that money inside the kettle goes.
This money allows the Salvation Army to help people all year and donating is simple.
You can put cash directly in a red kettle or you can scan a QR code connected to the kettle that takes you to a landing page to make a donation."
And if you don't see a kettle near you, you can still donate via the website, HuntsvilleKettle.org
And if you are unable to donate, the Salvation Army is still looking for volunteers to help ring bells.
