While the full total won’t be known until the middle of the month, staff at the Belleville Salvation Army say they will comfortably surpass the $200,000 goal, for the 2018 Christmas Kettle Campaign.
Director of Family and Community Services Abby Mills says they are waiting on the tally from online donation and the addition of a corporate matching donation from Wal Mart, but the Sally Ann is thanking members of the community for their generosity.
She says the money makes a massive difference for those in need in our community.
Mill also thanked the dozens of volunteers and coordinators who helped the campaign run so smoothly and says that was another major key to its success.
