Holiday Bell Ringing for the Salvation Army

For the second year in a row North Atlanta and Brookhaven Rotarians joined forces to ring the bell for the Salvation Army. In prior years each club had taken their own day(s) to provide this support and service to the Salvation Army. By combining forces we have shared the burden of providing two coordinators, a minimum of 24 volunteers working 2 hour shifts over two Saturdays in December. Additionally we invited our Chamblee Charter High School Interact Club members to join us, as well as our family members.

As you can see by the photos, we enhanced good will and better friendships among our rotarians, interactors and family members by sharing time together doing service and creating greater awareness of and giving to the Salvation Army.

The number of beneficiaries is unknown as we are raising funds in general for the Salvation Army. The Salvation Army is in charge of collecting and tabulating the funds. This year we raised approximately $2000. in the kettles. The funds raised on these two days will be matched by Sun Trust Bank for a total raised of $4,000.
