Amid COVID-19, the organization said requests for help are at all-time high and it estimates it could serve up to 155% more people this year with Christmas assistance from putting food on the table, paying bills, providing shelter and helping place gifts under the tree – if resources are available.
Since March, the Salvation Army says it has provided more than 100 million meals and 1.5 million nights of shelter. Last year, $126 million was raised through about 30,000 red kettles. In a statement to USA TODAY, Salvation Army said it is working with “corporate and community partners to determine how many red kettles will be safely placed, but we expect it will be less than our typical number.”
Bell ringers will be provided masks and instructed to follow all local and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention safety protocols, officials told USA TODAY, adding they also will be trained to maintain social distancing and to clean kettles each day.
