One of my favorite holiday traditions in recent years has been raising money for local residents-in-nee­­­­d by collecting for the Salvation Army. Greeting friends and constituents and sharing the warmth of the season while helping our community is a great way to get into the holiday spirit.

This year, I will be outside of the Wallingford Stop and Shop and ringing the Salvation Army bell on Saturday, December 21st from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Please come by to say hello, make a donation, or perhaps even both!

If you’re unable to make it on Saturday but would still like to make a difference, you can donate directly to the Salvation Army at: SalArmy.us/GOP

Salvation Army Bell Ringing

Saturday, December 21, 2024

11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Stop and Shop – 930 North Colony Rd., Wallingford, CT

 

You can also visit the Salvation Army’s website at www.salvationarmyusa.org to learn of other ways to do good this holiday season; for example, by donating cars, clothing, household goods, airline miles, bonds and stocks, or volunteering for the community.

As a group, the Republican caucuses in Hartford have raised more than $250,000 for the Salvation Army over the past decade. The Salvation Army responds to natural disasters such as wildfires and tornadoes, provides meals and toys to families in need, and conducts research and analyses regarding human needs around the country. They also provide adult rehabilitation, veteran services, elderly services, missing person searches, housing assistance, youth recreation, sponsorship, and support in the fight to end human trafficking.
