Please Keep Giving to Salvation Army

It’s Christmas time and the bells are ringing – that’s the salvation army kettle bells. If you are going about the city, you are bound to see the season’s symbolic red kettles used to collect monies for charity projects throughout the year. Salvation Army’s District Commander, Major Joliker Leandre, told us that the collections are coming in, but he makes an extra appeal for you not to miss the kettles as you move around the city this holiday season.

“We are confident that the public is going to continue to support us, as they have been doing over the many years. So, we are very grateful for the support we are getting and I am confident. I got some calls from persons who have not yet contributed and are going to make their contributions and those who did not receive a letter are coming to the office for a letter. So, I am sure this month the kettles will pick up. But we want to encourage everybody, every time we see a kettle, remember it is all about caring and sharing and as you share your kindness it will multiply and return to the public. I am sure you will see the smile on the faces of those who have benefitted from it and then you will be happy that you have done something.”
