KUALA LUMPUR, December 18 Established since 1938, the Salvation Army Malaysia is known for their many relief efforts to the less fortunate.
Among their famous work is the Christmas Kettling fundraising campaign, where they’ll open up booths with the iconic red kettle to raise funds by selling used books, clothes and official merchandise while spreading the joy of Christmas.
According to their regional officer, Major Francis Ng, the Christmas Kettling campaign has been a tradition in Sabah and Sarawak and it had just been reintroduced in peninsula Malaysia in 2016 with the most recent one held in Citta Mall, Ara Damansara last year.
SINGAPORE - Malls in Singapore have fallen silent this festive season, when volunteers from The Salvation Army usually ring bells to solicit public donations.
The familiar red kettles used for The Salvation Army s annual fund-raiser, known as Christmas Kettling, can still be found at selected shopping centres, but they are unmanned due to Covid-19 restrictions.
Members of the public can drop cash into the kettle pots or scan the QR code on them to make a donation. They can also give online at christmaskettling.sg.
But the charity says that having no bells for this Christmas fund-raiser will have a devastating impact on its ability to serve its needy beneficiaries next year.
