Salvation Army Collects $14,000 to Support Families in Need

The Salvation Army Service Unit serving Lawrence and Wayne Counties wishes to express its sincere appreciation to the community for the remarkable support received during the latest Red Kettle Campaign. This year, the initiative successfully generated over $14,000, which will be utilized to provide assistance to individuals and families facing hardships in both Lawrence and Wayne Counties.

Notably, residents of Lawrence County returned to volunteer at the kettles after a hiatus of twelve years, marking a significant moment in community engagement. Additionally, the Collinwood High School Student Council made history by becoming the first school-sponsored organization to take part in the bell-ringing efforts within Wayne County. This involvement not only highlights the spirit of giving but also fosters a sense of responsibility and community service among the youth.
