Ring a Bell – Help Salvation Army!
Do you know that Denton is home to the only homeless shelter in all of Denton County? The Salvation Army shelter is located on E. McKinney Street and helps hundreds of individuals and families get back on their feet each year. Just like many other non-profit organizations that serve our most vulnerable populations, the Salvation Army has seen significant cuts as of late.
You know those bell ringers you see around Christmas time at stores around town? That provides a major source of funding for their annual budget and allows them to keep their doors open and the most needy in our community fed and off the streets. This year they are hoping to fill the bell ringer spots with volunteers. Imagine yourself, your church, your office, or even your friends joining together to adopt a day and a spot to collect money for the Salvation Army. What a great way to meet a local need and spread the holiday cheer in a meaningful way.
If this sounds like something you’d like to do, please read this info sheet from the Salvation Army and contact Amanda Ledhe at amandalehde@hotmail.com with the date(s) you are able to help.
