Joliet & Will County Corps Community Center - Home The "miracle" of Christmas is repeated over and over again through the joy of caring and sharing. The raising of funds through the traditional red kettle has always been an integral part of our Christmas efforts. This year over $140,000. dollars were donated to the Red Kettle Campaign in Will County to aid needy families, seniors, and the homeless, in keeping with the spirit of the season. Your donations provide Christmas dinners, clothing, and toys for families in need. Your financial assistance also helps with basic necessities, along with seasonal aid. Families of prisoners often are included.
Additionally, 265 volunteers raised monies at our Red Kettle locations, sorted and helped out in our annual Angel Tree program providing clothing and toys to needing children in the community, and distributed gifts to shut-ins in hospitals and nursing homes. The Salvation Army endeavors to bring spiritual light and love to those it serves at Christmas so that the real meaning of the season is not forgotten.
WE THANK YOU!
Please continue to join us in this New Year supporting the ministry of The Salvation Army
in Joliet & Will County. Need has no season!
