T’is the Season to Ring the Bell – Salvation Army Red Kettle campaign

It’s that time of year. Sign up to be a Salvation Army bell ringer. Rice County Co-Chair Gina Little said they have two-hour slots to fill in three cities. Eighty-eight percent of each dollar raised stays in Rice County and assists in emergency situations such as gas vouchers, food, prescription medications, shelter, etc. The funds also provide programs for youth such as Shop with a Cop and Summer Camp. They also have a senior visiting program. Sign up with your church group, a work group, a group of friends or family. This link takes you to the Sign-Up Genius where you can select Faribault, Northfield or Lonsdale and the time and dates open. You can also call 507-649-9134.  Sign up now to get the time YOU want!
