Going into the morning of New Year's Eve, the current annual
Salvation Army Red Kettle campaign total stood at $21,325.33. That
represents 35.5 percent of the campaign goal of $60,000. "It's not
over until it's over!" So says Rebecca Van Nydeggen, local director
of The Salvation Army. "We have a big task for assistance to Logan
County residents ahead of us in 2011, and we have a financial goal
to match the task. We will continue until our goal is met and
projected assistance can be funded for the coming year!"
Kettles remain for physical donations made by check or cash at
Lincoln IGA, Stacy's Family Pharmacy, Bryant's Arcade Restaurant and
both branches of Logan County Bank, downtown and on Woodlawn Road.
Donations made by mail and postmarked Dec. 31 will be credited
with a year-end tax-deductible donation receipt for donors.
Donations may be mailed to The Salvation Army, P.O. Box 52, Lincoln,
IL 62656.
The
Online Red Kettle remains open until the goal is met.
