Me outside Walmart ringing the bell for the "Rock the Red Kettle Campaign"
I was happy to take time out of my weekend to ring the bell for the Salvation Army’s “Rock the Red Kettle” campaign. Not only was I able to help my Spring Valley Rotarians by ringing the bell, but I was presented with many other opportunities to help folks in other ways, such as helping to lift wheelchairs, pushing motorized carts that were stuck in traffic, and my fellow Rotarian even took back a movie to a RedBox drop off for someone who was new to the area!
One of the best things about this service project was seeing how many parents were teaching their children and grandchildren to give by allowing them to stuff the kettle. More proof that giving can be more fun than getting as they left with the biggest smiles on their faces!
I look forward to doing this service project that helps both the Spring Valley Rotary and the Salvation Army next Christmas!
