WATERFORD – On December 18th, State Representative Kathleen McCarty (R-38) and State Senator Paul Formica (R-20) rang the bell for the Salvation Army outside the Waterford Wal-Mart to raise money for local residents in need. In just an hour, the lawmakers raised nearly $200 – all of which was donated directly to the Salvation Army.
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.
