December 23, 2020 By Jessica Mathews/News@whmi.com The Salvation Army of Livingston County is entering the final push of its annual red kettle Christmas campaign. The Christmas Campaign is the largest fundraising effort for the local Corps each year. Everything raised supports year round programs and services to help meets the needs of local residents, which officials say are needed more than ever due to the ongoing pandemic. As of Tuesday, the local Corps had $129,000 left to raise toward its $385,000 goal. Red kettles will be out at locations today and then from 10am to 2pm on Christmas Eve. Lt. Robert Leach says the community support has been amazing â especially considering that theyâve been low on bell ringers and havenât had as many spots open as they would typically like. Leach says theyâve noticed that when the red kettles are out though, the Livingston County community has been very gracious and generous so while they still have a fair way to go to reach their goal, theyâve been blown away by where theyâre at, at this point.
