Red Kettle Bell Ringer

One of the most recognized symbols of The Salvation Army is the bell ringer with a Red Kettle standing in front of a grocery store or shopping mall.  The Red Kettle campaign is The Salvation Army's largest fundraiser contributing hundreds of thousands of dollars to programs helping people in Central Ohio.

We need volunteer groups to Adopt a Red Kettle for a Day by organizing a team of friends, family or coworkers to ring the bell for a day (10:00am - 8:00pm, Monday through Saturday) between Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. Choose from more than 80 convenient kettle locations throughout Central Ohio!
