The Salvation Army of Jackson projects 150% needs increase

With the possibility of 50% fewer Salvation Army Red Kettles in Jackson County this year due to COVID-19, and demand for services increasing by up to 150% this Christmas, The Salvation Army of Jackson County is encouraging participation with the “Virtual Red Kettle” campaign, running Nov. 1-Dec. 31. Traditional Red Kettle locations will run Nov. 27-Dec. 24.

“This year, as always, it is our goal to serve all who come to us with need. With the possibility that The Salvation Army of Jackson County will see an 150% increase in demand our ability to meet this need may be limited and we are calling on our community to meet this challenge with us,” said Major Jose Tamayo, Corps Officer.

“Setting-up a Salvation Army of Jackson County on-line “Virtual Red Kettle” is a completely safe and secure way for the public to support their neighbors in this time of great need” said Brad Patterson, Development Director. “Virtual Red Kettles” can be set up as an individual or an organizational team by visiting https://salarmy.us/jaxkettle or at SAJackson.org .

The Salvation Army of Jackson County has been in operation since 1885. Last year they served over 22,000 Jackson County residents with basic human service needs support.
