VERO BEACH — With just a few days left until Christmas, The Salvation of IRC is edging closer to the goal of $130,000. As of Wednesday, Dec. 12, the Salvation Army was at $68,000 or 52% of goal.
Your pocket change will make the difference whether The Salvation Army makes its goal or not this holiday season. Your change will help make change in our community for 2013 and help The Salvation Army “do the most good” with your generosity.
This year we will need just as much support. We are asking you to take notice of all the red kettles that are out in front of many retail locations in Indian River County during these final days ending Dec. 24 and make a donation to The Salvation Army.
Some of these locations include Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club, Publix, The Post Office, and Winn Dixie.
The Red Kettle Campaign is the major fundraiser for The Salvation Army and helps to support families in need during Christmas and all our programs for the entire 2013 year.
The Salvation Army is only as successful as its generous donors and community members allow it to be. Without the help and support of this community, we would never be able to maintain our progress and services.
We need community support this Christmas and look forward to exceeding our Red Kettle Campaign goal.
Volunteers are still needed to ring the bell at any of our 12 locations..
For more information on how to help make our goal, please call (772) 978-0265 or visit us on Facebook at Facebook.com/pages/The-Salvation-Army-of-Indian-River-Co-Fla.
