The Salvation Army's red kettle season is kicking off to raise money for families needing a little help this holiday season.
“At least 82 cents of each dollar goes directly programs that help local families in need, i.e. at our Emergency Family Shelter, Social Services Programs, Food Assistance, Senior Citizens Programs, Men’s Shelter. We also have programs for children, such as our Boys & Girls Club that provide safe activities for kids after school and in the summertime,” Salvation Army spokesperson Brad Mayhar wrote in an email.
With colder temperatures on the horizon, the emergency family shelter houses full-intact families, as well as single women, single moms, and single dads. On average, about 130 people stay at the shelter per night, with 50 to 70 of those people being children. Money raised during the Parade of Kettles will be used in part to help those seeking shelter and safety at the Salvation Army’s shelters.Leigh Waldman is a news reporter at KSAT 12.
