ROCHESTER, Minn. – Mayo Clinic’s pledge to match virtual Red Kettle donations the weekend of December 19 has raised almost $322,000 for the Rochester Salvation Army.
The Salvation Army says there were 832 online donations amounting to $160,911.90 during that time and Mayo Clinic will match that total with its own contribution.
“We are so grateful to Mayo Clinic for their continued support and for this exceptionally generous gift,” says Major Robert Mueller, Corps Officer of The Salvation Army. “The Salvation Army’s programs in this community are life changing to those individuals and families utilizing our services. By matching the dollars in their virtual kettle, Mayo Clinic is helping bring hope and healing to thousands of our neighbors in need.”
