Meridian Salvation Army: ‘Thank you for support’

MERIDIAN, Miss. (WTOK) - The Salvation Army appreciates the many donors, supporters, volunteers, and community partners for supporting its Red Kettle Campaign during the holiday season.

Because of the support from the community, individuals and families did not go hungry, and over 602 children and seniors experienced the miracle of a Christmas morning. In addition, the money raised at Christmas helps fund the many programs and services provided to these same families and many more throughout the year.

The Salvation Army raised over $42,000, which will help provide food and financial assistance to those in crisis in our community. In 2022 alone, the organization provided essential services to over 15,000 people in need in Lauderdale, Newton, Neshoba and Kemper counties.
