Salvation Army aims high with Kettle Campaign

In just a few short days, the familiar ringing of bells and shiny red kettles will return to many businesses in Newton as the Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Campaign kicks off its 2012 effort.

Although Salvation Army Captains Mikey and Jeff Carter may be new to town, the fundraising effort will largely remain unchanged.

“We haven’t changed a whole lot because what’s worked is still working,” Jeff said. “We called all the stores that had red kettles in the past, and they all agreed to do that again this year.”
