Salvation Army Bell Ringing

Salvation Army Bell Ringing at various business in Bellingham.

We have begun setting out requests for volunteers, on the table at all weekly meeting for the next 5 weeks. We are in need of 40 people to stand in pairs for a two hour shift between the hours of 9-5, on Saturday December 17^th.   As in the past we have four locations. Haggen’s at Meridian and Barkley Village. Kmart and Fred Meyer on Lakeway.

Ever wonder if our efforts are worth it. People walking into these businesses recognize us as leaders in the community and as such we have noticed that they don’t just give but seem to be extra generous.

Last year we collected; $502.00 @ Haggen Meridian, $1,540.00 @ Haggen Barkley Village, $1,323.00 @ Fred Meyer and a winning $1,632 @ Kmart.

That’s a whopping total of $4,997 for a committee with $0.00 dollars in there budget.
