SIOUX CITY, IA -
The Salvation Army bell ringers have been out for weeks now, but the whole drive is still around $20,000 short of its $185,500 goal.
The money raised funds Salvation Army operations all year long.
While the campaign isn't very far behind normal for Christmas Eve, any little donation helps out.
"That's pretty typical for this time of year," said Siouxland Salvation Army Commanding Officer Major Von R. Vandiver. "We've had some really good weather up until the last few days, when it's gotten cold, so that's really helped. Our kettle campaign has done really well."
You won't see the kettles out after Christmas Eve, but you can still give money to the Red Kettle Campaign until the first of the year.
You can mail your donations to PO Box 783, Sioux City, IA 51102.
You can also donate on-line at: www.donate.salvationarmyusa.org
