Salvation Army

It’s that time of year again, and local families are counting on generosity more than ever. The need for toys is soaring in Duluth.

No cash? Not a problem. The Duluth Salvation army is offering a new way to donate by tapping your wallet or mobile wallet at Red Kettle locations. They are also hoping a business will sponsor the tap-to-give to offset the rental cost.

There's a food drive happening now at the Duluth Salvation Army, and they are seeing a lot more people coming in for help.

As the start of the school year approaches, there are families who need a helping hand to make sure their students have what they need to begin the year. And you could win free food for making a donation.

The largest one day food drive in the country is this Saturday

Only halfway through, an annual fundraiser is set to break records if donations keep up their current pace.

You can help feed those in need by participating in the largest one-day food drive in the country this weekend.

The "red" kettles from the Salvation Army are visible this time of year throughout Central Minnesota. Major Mike Parker from the St. Cloud Salvation Army joined me on WJON. He says they are about a quarter toward their financial goal for the season. He says the kettle goal is $200,000 and they just went over $50,000.

An international aid organization is lending a hand to people in Ukraine, and you can help too.

This is taking bell ringing for the Salvation Army to a whole new level.
