Temperatures are dropping, leaves are falling, and snow has made its first appearance in many places across Alaska. That means Red Kettle season is right around the corner!

A tradition over 130 years old, The Salvation Army's Red Kettles raise funds that continue to help our neighbors year round. If you'd like to make a difference this year, sign up to ring the bell with us! If you don't see a shift that works for you right now, keep checking back as new locations and time slots are added. We can't wait to see you!

Did you know the Red Kettle tradition began in 1891? Salvation Army Captain Joseph McFee placed a donation pot at the Oakland Ferry Landing to help provide a Christmas meal for people in need. More than 130 years later, that simple idea continues to make a difference in communities across the country.

Today, Red Kettle donations help The Salvation Army provide food, shelter, utility assistance and other essential services to neighbors in need throughout the year.

As we prepare for this holiday season, we’re inviting you to be part of this meaningful tradition. Whether you bring a friend, volunteer with family or ring on your own, your time can help bring hope to your community.

Ready to make a difference? Sign up to ring a bell at your local Red Kettle!

Beautiful things can happen when a community works together!

Thank you, Sitka Lutheran Church and AC Lakeside, for supporting The Salvation Army Sitka Corps in our food drive. We are grateful for your partnership and support.

Thank You, Sitka!

The Salvation Army in Sitka would like to express our sincere appreciation to the volunteers from Sitka Lutheran Church who collected 517 pounds of food for our food pantry on Saturday, September 26. In addition, the drive received $754 in monetary contributions, which the church generously passed along to support The Salvation Army’s social services efforts in our community.

We are also grateful to AC Lakeside for supporting the food drive and providing a place for the collection.

We are thankful to be part of a community where churches, businesses, volunteers, and neighbors come together to care for one another. Thank you to everyone who volunteered or contributed!
