KINGSFORD Despite the many struggles that faced the Salvation Army’s 2020 Red Kettle Campaign season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, two local nonprofits still were able to generate funds needed to continue their mission in the new year.
The Salvation Army Bread of Life Assistance Center of Dickinson County raised a total of $133,831.89.
“Although we had an estimated shortfall of $20,091 from last year’s campaign, we couldn’t be more appreciative considering all the obstacles,” Director Tara Blagec said.
