Serving Those in Need This Christmas, Lake County, MT
The Salvation Army is committed to serving those in need
Lake County, MT – November 26, 2025 – The Salvation Army in Polson, MT has a proud tradition of bell ringing each Christmas season at RED kettles. The proceeds from kettles benefit Lake County’s people in need throughout the year. Thank you to the many donors for helping The Salvation Army carry out their mission of doing the most good. Each donation to an iconic
Salvation Army RED kettle stays local to support Lake County neighbors. $.84 of every donated $1 goes directly to emergency services for Lake County individuals or families. These generous
donations provide hope throughout the year.
This Christmas, The Salvation Army is happy to host our RED kettle campaign at local Walmart stores, Safeway stores, Pablo Foods in Polson and Rod’s Harvest Foods in Saint Ignatius. Other
sites are welcome to participate. We are grateful to St. Andrews Church for partnering with us on this effort. Would you like to help? If you or a group of individuals are interested in volunteer
bell ringing for The Salvation Army to serve people in need, please contact The Reverend Jocelyn Snider at 406.360.6152. Also, you can make an on-line contribution at
