Fourth and fifth grade Girl Scouts from Mary Of Lords in Little Falls donated around 5,000 items to the St. Cloud Area Salvation Army today (Wednesday).
There have been numerous, high profile reports of thousand dollar donations to Salvation Army Red Kettles this season around Minnesota - and the very latest has been discovered right here in the St. Cloud area.
The Norman C. Skalicky Foundation and the Central Minnesota Community Foundation are conducting their community matching challenge for area food shelves again this year. They will match every dollar donated, up to $50,000.
The air was chilly, but shoppers and well-wishers gathered at the Cooper Avenue Coborn's on Thursday evening to commemorate the start of the Salvation Army's Red Kettle donation drive.
