Ring the Bell for Salvation Army

By
Commercial Real Estate Agent with Contour Investment Properties

Salvation Army bucketHere's another project idea for your Rotary club. Every year our club mans the Salvation Army buckets at Thanksgiving and Christmas. The Salvation Army provides the buckets and bells, and club members sign up for one hour shifts to ring the bell. We ring the bell on Saturday and Sunday afternoons/evenings on the most popular shopping weekend days of the holidays. This season especially, the Salvation Army needs the help and funds.

Build goodwill and friendships,

Get your club involved - ring the bell!

That is a great idea. I did not realize that you can volunteer to do it, it just did not occur to me. And the thought of short shifts seems like you could enlisothers fairly easily. Good Luck with your bell!

Excellent idea.  Giving to the Salvation Army is a great way to do your part to help the less fortunate.

Hi Tim, Great job. I always wondered where the traditional Salvation Army bell ringers came from.  Great job and keep it up!  Have a wonderful holiday!

Hi Tim, our Interact students have adopted the bell ringing as one of their projects.  We have a great group of kids getting involved! Merry Christmas!
