That familiar bell, the red kettle, the bundled-up volunteer, it’s a holiday tradition. But this year, it’s more than tradition, it’s a call for help.
Salvation Army spokesman Dan Furry says bell ringers have returned to storefronts, hoping to meet a growing wave of need as more families face hardship than ever before…
“We always have more shifts available than we have billing, or so there’s never a shortage of shifts for people. We could use literally thousands more bell ringers, and the more bell ringers that we get, the more resources we have available to help those people who are coming to us.”
