I rang a bell at a Salvation Army kettle in Worthington on Thursday. The kettle at the Worthington Kroger is sponsored by Worthington Industries.
Thanks to Linda Tacosik in the Worthington Real Living HER office for organizing, scheduling and reminding us. We worked a one hour slot, two of us ringing bells, dueling bells. My bell kept falling out of my mittened hand.
You can text in a donation to the Salvation Army in Columbus to 90999. Text the word - Kettle. I did. It texted me back to confirm the $5 donation. My phone company put the donation on my next bill. I believe it works with all of the cell phone services.
According to the Salvation Army's Columbus site "serving those in need in Central Ohio since 1885." That's a tradition!
Speaking of charity... today is the Charity Newsies Paper Sale, a Columbus tradition. Buy a paper, help to clothe children.

My local Giant Super Market has the Salvation Army Kettle outside. The other supermarkets do not permit them.
I shop at the Giant.
I have not seen a lot of them here and I have now been running around shopping.
I noticed a kettle set up in one of the Krogers I shop in when I went in late one night recently but just realized there is NOT one at the other smaller Kroger I stopped at yesterday.
